Equation

       
    Name Couple (rotational dynamics)
 
    Equation G = I α = I d ω d t
 
    Definition of terms G = couple, I = moment of inertia, ω = angular velocity
 
    Comments   When a rigid body is pivoted about a fixed axis, the resultant external torque is the product of the moment of inertia with the angular acceleration.
