Options:

A) (1532)MR2

B) (18)MR2

C) (38)MR2

D) (1332)MR2

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

  • [d] ITotal disc= MR22

As mass is proportional to area, MRemoved=M4

Now, about the same perpendicular axis:

IRemoved=M4(R/2)22+M4(R22)=3MR232

IRemainingDisc=ITotalIRemoved=MR223MR232=13MR232
