The moment of inertia about the axis of a solid cylinder is <u>less than</u> the moment of inertia of a cylindrical shell having the same mass and radius.
<h3>How to calculate moment of inertia?</h3>
Mathematically, the moment of inertia for a solid cylinder is calculated by using this formula:
I = (1/2)mr²
<u>Where:</u>
In conclusion, the moment of inertia about the axis of a solid cylinder would be <u>less than</u> the moment of inertia of a cylindrical shell that has the same mass and radius because the mass of the solid cylinder must be taken near the axis of rotation, which makes it smaller.
