Descrizione	Figura	Momento di inerzia	Commento
Massa puntiforme m a distanza r dall'asse di rotazione.		${\displaystyle I=mr^{2}}$	Un massa puntiforme non ha momento di inerzia intorno al proprio asse, ma useo il Parallel axis theorem a moment of inertia around a distant axis of rotation is achieved.
Due masse puntiformi, M e m, con massa ridotta ${\displaystyle \mu }$ e separate da una distanza, x.		${\displaystyle I={\frac {Mm}{M\!+\!m}}x^{2}=\mu x^{2}}$	—
Asta di lunghezza L e massa m (Asse di rotazione alla fine dell'asta)		${\displaystyle I_{\mathrm {end} }={\frac {mL^{2}}{3}}\,\!}$  [1]	Questa espressione assume che l'asta sia un filo infinitamente sottile ma rigido. Questo è anche un caso particolare della piastra rettangolare con asse di rotazione alla fine della piastra, e con h = L e w = 0.
Asta di lunghezza L e massa m		${\displaystyle I_{\mathrm {center} }={\frac {mL^{2}}{12}}\,\!}$  [1]	Questa espressione assume che l'asta sia un filo infinitamente sottile ma rigido.Questo è anche un caso particolare della piastra rettangolare con asse di rotazione al centro della piastra, con w = L e h = 0.

Thin cylindrical shell con open ends, di raggio r e massa m		${\displaystyle I=mr^{2}\,\!}$  [1]	This expression assumes the shell thickness is negligible. It is a special case of the thick-walled cylindrical tube for r1=r2. Also, a point mass (m) at the end of a Asta of length r has this same moment of inertia e the value r is called the radius of gyration.

Sphere (hollow) di raggio r e massa m		${\displaystyle I={\frac {2mr^{2}}{3}}\,\!}$  [1]	A hollow sphere can be taken to be made up of two stacks of infinitesimally thin, circular hoops, where the radius differs from 0 to r (or a single stack, , where the radius differs from -r to r).
Ball (solid) di raggio r e massa m		${\displaystyle I={\frac {2mr^{2}}{5}}\,\!}$  [1]	A sphere can be taken to be made up of two stacks of infinitesimally thin, solid discs, where the radius differs from 0 to r (or a single stack, where the radius differs from -r to r). Also, it can be taken to be made up of infinitesimally thin, hollow spheres, where the radius differs from 0 to r.
