Answer:
Correct Answer: 57. (b)
Solution:
- (b) Moment of inertia of complete disc about point ’
‘.
Mass of removed disc
Moment of inertia of removed disc about point ‘O’.
Therefore the moment of inertia of the remaining part of the disc about a perpendicular axis passing through the centre,
Moment of inertia of a part of a rigid body (Symmetrically cut from the whose mass) is the same as that of the whole body when whole mass is replaced by mass of that part.
