Gram Square Centimeter

The gram square centimeter (g·cm²) is a CGS unit of moment of inertia equal to 10⁻⁷ kg·m². It is used in physics and engineering at the CGS system level, particularly for small objects and in older scientific literature. One g·cm² is equal to 10⁻⁷ kg·m² in SI units. 


Kilogram Square Meter

The kilogram square meter (kg·m²) is the SI unit of moment of inertia (also called rotational inertia), representing the resistance of a body to changes in its rotational motion. It is defined as the sum of the products of each mass element and the square of its distance from the rotation axis. The kg·m² appears in rotational analogs of Newton's second law, where torque equals moment of inertia times angular acceleration.
