Tensor means a quantity having magnitude and more than one direction. M.I has no direction. So it is scalar.

Moment of inertia is a type of force and tensor is a unit of force that's why moment of inertia is a tensor.

MI is a scalar quantity, because it has magnitude but have no direction. MI doesn't change with direction.

Tensor: things that have no magnitude and direction. Exampl: time, pressure, moment of inertia.

Moment of inertia is prodct of mass and squre of radius[that is tensile strength]
ie I=mc^2
ie I=mc^2

Basically inertia is a kind of a force which partionize the object in mirror position(pose).

Scalar and vector quantities both are tensor.
Stress is tensor So MI is also tensor.
Stress is tensor So MI is also tensor.

I think moment of inertia is a vector because it has both magnitude and direction.
