A solid cylinder of mass 20 kg has length 1 m and radius 0.2 m. Then its moment of inertia (in kg m ) about its geometrical axis is (in kg `m^2`)

A

0.8

B

0.4

C

0.2

D

0.6

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

The moment of inertia of cylinder about the geometrical axis = `(MR^(2))/(2) = (20 xx (0.2)^(2))/(2) = 0.4kg m^(2)`
