The moment of inertia of a disc of mass 
and radius 
about an axis, which is tangential to the circumference of the disc and parallel to its diameter is
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
We know that moment of inertia of a disc about its diameter is 
.
In the figure 
is a diameter. Which passes through centre of mass of the disc. CD is another axis which is parallel to 
and about which we shall have to calculate moment of inertia.
Now, from the theory of parallel axis
