  1. The moment of inertia of a uniform circular disc of radius R and mass M about an axis touching the disc at its diameter and normal to the disc is
    1. 2
      MR²
      5
    2. 3
      MR²
      2
    3. 1
      MR²
      2
    4. MR²
Correct Option: C

M.I. of a uniform circular disc of radius ‘R’ and mass ‘M’ about an axis passing though C.M. and normal to the disc is

LC.M =
1
MR²
2

From parallel axis theorem,
IT = IC.M + MR² =
1
MR² + MR² =
3
MR²
22
