Rotational MotionHard

Question

One quarter section is cut from a uniform circular disc of radius R. This section has a mass M. It is made to rotate about a line perpendicular to its plane and passing through the centre of the original disc. Its moment of inertial about the axis of rotation is
       

Options

A. MR2
B. MR2
C. MR2
D.√2MR2

Solution

Mass of the whole disc = 4M
Moment of inertia of the disc about the given axis
    (4M R2) = 2MR2
∴ Moment of inertia of quarter section of the disc
= (2MR2) = MR2
