Moment of Inertia - quantitative measure of a body's rotational inertia, i.e., the body's opposition to having its speed of rotation about an axis altered by the application of torque (turning force).
Enthalpy - a thermodynamic quantity equivalent to the total heat content of a system. It is equal to the internal energy of the system plus the product of pressure and volume.
