A uniform disc of mass 5 kg has a radius of 0.5 m. Its moment of inertia about an axis passing through a point on its circumference and perpendicular to its plane is

A

`"1.25 kg - m"^(2)`

B

`"0.5 kg - m"^(2)`

C

`"4 kg - m"^(2)`

D

`"1.875 kg - m"^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`I_(o)=I_(c)+Mh^(2)=(MR^(2))/(2)+MR^(2)`
`therefore I_(o)=(3)/(2)MR^(2)=(3)/(2)xx5xx25xx10^(-2)`
`="1.875 kg - m"^(2)`
