The moment of inertia of cylinder of radius a, mass M and height h about an axis parallel to the axis of the cylinder and distance b from its centre is :

A

`1/2 M(a^(2) + 2b^(2))`

B

`1/2 M (2a^(2) + b^(2))`

C

`1/2 M (a^(2) + b^(2))`

D

`1/2 M(a^(2)/3 + b^(2)/12)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Using parallel axes theorem,
`I_(A A') = I_(XX') + Mb^(2)`
`=M/2 (a^(2) + 2b^(2))`
