Rotational inertia is sometimes called spin. It involves the movement of a mass around an axis. This moving mass will have some measure of kinetic energy that is due to the fact that it is spinning. The variables are the shape and the mass of the object, the way the mass is distributed within the object, the speed of its rotation, and the location of the axis of spin through the object.
The moment of inertia might also be called angular mass, mass moment of inertia, rotational inertia, or polar moment of inertia of mass. Use the link below for more information.

Physical quantity coressponding to inertia is rotational motion?
The physical quantity for rotations corresponding to inertia is the moment of inertia, or rotational inertia. It is represented by the integral of r^2dm.
The product of an object's rotational inertia and its rotational velocity is?
The object's angular momentum
What does rotational inertia depend on?
Mass and radius
What is the property of an object that resists changes in rotational motion?
rotational inertiaMass moment if inertia.
Can the mass of an object be considered as constucted at its centrer of mass for purpose of computing its rotational inertia?
No. For the rotational inertia, the distribution of masses is relevant. Mass further from the axis of rotation contributes more to the rotational inertial than mass that is closer to it.
Is the rotational inertia of your leg greater when your leg is bending or straight?
Stright
What is the rotational analog of mass in linear motion?
That is called moment of inertia.
Why moment of inertia is called rotational inertia?
That's what it's all about: about rotation. The "inertia" part is because it is comparable to the linear inertia: that's what makes it difficult to change an object's rotation.
What are the different types of inertia?
(1) The general concept of inertia, according to newton's first laws, concerning objects' masses when it comes to resistance. (2) Rotational inertia (3) Gyroscopic inertia

Is rotational inertia enhanced with long legs?
Yes, having long legs can enhance rotational inertia because the mass of the legs is distributed further from the axis of rotation, increasing the moment of inertia. This can provide more stability and control in activities that involve rotation, such as gymnastics or diving.
What will happen when you stand in equilibrium on only one foot?
your rotational inertia will be zero
