Frequently Asked Questions

What does kilogram square meter measure?
It measures moment of inertia, representing an object's resistance to angular acceleration, calculated as mass times the square of distance from the rotation axis.

When should I use ounce-force inch sq. second units?
This unit is suitable for specifying or comparing the rotational inertia of small rotors, precision instruments, or small electric motors where imperial units are preferred.

Is the conversion between these units exact?
No, the conversion is approximate due to differences in unit system definitions, so caution is advised when working at very high precision levels.

Key Terminology

Moment of Inertia
A measure of an object's resistance to angular acceleration based on its mass distribution relative to an axis of rotation.
Kilogram Square Meter (kg·m²)
An SI derived unit representing moment of inertia, calculated as mass times the square of the distance from the rotation axis.
Ounce-Force Inch Sq. Second
An imperial unit of moment of inertia used for small rotors or gimbal-mounted components, equal to an ounce-force times an inch times a second squared.
