Some inequalities for moments of $X^\alpha$, $0\alpha\leq 1$,
$X$ nonneg. r. v., are presented, for example $DX^\alpha\leq (DX)^\alpha$,
$DX^\alpha\leq (DX)/(EX)^{2(1-\alpha)}$,
$
(EX)^\alpha-EX^\alpha \leq (1-\alpha)(DX)/(EX)^{2-\alpha}.
$
It is proved that $nD\overline X_n^\alpha\to\alpha^2(DX)/(EX)^{2(1-\alpha)}$,
$n\to\infty$, where $X_1,X_2,\dots,X_n$ are i. \i d. r. v. and
$\overline X_n= (X_1+X_2+\dots+ X_n)/n$. The estimation of $\sqrt{EX}$
is considered, and for binominal case some numerical evaluations are
given.
