Moment of inertia of a solid sphere of radius R and density p about its diameter is

A

`(8)/(3)piR^(3)rho`

B

`(8)/(15)piR^(4)rho`

C

`(8)/(15)piR^(5)rho`

D

`(15)/(8)piR^(3)rho^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`I=(2)/(5)MR^(2)=(2)/(5)((4)/(3)piR^(3)xx rho)R^(2)=(8)/(15)piR^(5)rho`
