The moment of inertia of a uniform circu...

The moment of inertia of a uniform circular disc of radius R and mass M about an axis passing from the edge of the disc and normal to the disc is

A

`MR^(2)`

B

`1/2MR^(2)`

C

`3/2MR^(2)`

D

`7/2MR^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

M.I. of disc about its normal `=1/2MR^(2)`
M.I. about its one edge =`MR^(2)+(MR^(2))/2`
(Perpendicular to the plane)
Moment of inertia =`3/2MR^(2)`.
