The moment of inertia of a uniform circular disc of radius RR and mass MM about an axis passing from the edge of the disc and normal to the disc is

Options

  1. AMR2M R^2
  2. B12MR2\frac{1}{2} M R^2
  3. C32MR2\frac{3}{2} M R^2
  4. D72MR2\frac{7}{2} M R^2

Correct answer

C. 32MR2\frac{3}{2} M R^2

Step-by-step solution

The moment of inertia of uniform circular disc about an axis through its centre and normal to its plane ICG=12MR2I_{\mathrm{CG}}=\frac{1}{2} M R^2 According to theorem of parallel axis, the moment of inertia of the uniform circular disc about an axis passing from the edge of the disc fand normal to the disc, I=ICG+MR2=12MR2+MR2=32MR2I=I_{\mathrm{CG}}+M R^2=\frac{1}{2} M R^2+M R^2=\frac{3}{2} M R^2
