Middle English: from Latin momentum (see momentum).

In the earlier thread, there was the same question about "mooment." This is the key concept in the sport of cow tipping. When the overturning mooment becomes greater than the righting mooment, the cow tips over.

The PS or HWC actually ask for information about "Moment of Inertia".

This sounds like homework - "define the moment of Inertia . . . . " ,

Dear gasi please consult your handbook or use your bandwidth wisely and Google "Moment of Inertia"
