The video tutorial explains the parallel axis theorem, which relates the moment of inertia of an object about any axis to its moment of inertia about a parallel axis through its center of mass. The instructor uses graphical representations and mathematical derivations to illustrate the theorem, including the use of Pythagoras' theorem and integration. The tutorial also covers the concept of the center of mass and its significance in the theorem, providing a comprehensive understanding of the topic.
