Calculating the moment of inertia of a filled cylinder

[QUOTE="Thynazgul, post: 4944557, member: 535360"] [h2]Homework Statement [/h2] For my IB higher level physics extended essay I will have to calculate the angular momentum of a cylinder rolling down a slope. The cylinder is made out of copper and will be filled with a known mass of car engine oil. I think i can obtain the angular velocity fairly easily since it is just ω=2πF. My problem is with the moment of inertia of this cylinder. [h2]Homework Equations[/h2] I know that the equation for moment of inertia is 1/2mr[SUP]2[/SUP] but this does not take into account that there is a viscous liquid inside of the cylinder. For angular momentum I will use L=I*ω. [h2]The Attempt at a Solution[/h2] I have not tried much because the IB does not include moment of inertia in its syllabus so I am quite lost at the moment.
