    If the moment of inertia of a disc about an axis tangential and parallel to its surface be\[l,\]then what will be the moment of inertia about the axis tangential but perpendicular to the surface?

    A)  \[\frac{6}{5}I\]                                

    B)  \[\frac{3}{4}I\]

    C)  \[\frac{3}{2}I\]                

    D)         \[\frac{5}{4}I\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Moment of inertia of disc about a tangent and parallel to its plane,                 \[I=\frac{M{{R}^{2}}}{4}+M{{R}^{2}}=\frac{5}{4}M{{R}^{2}}\]      ... (i) Moment of inertia of disc about a tangent and perpendicular to its plane,                 \[=\frac{M{{R}^{2}}}{2}+M{{R}^{2}}=\frac{3}{2}M{{R}^{2}}\] \[\therefore \]  \[\frac{I}{{{I}_{perpendicular}}}=\frac{\frac{5}{4}M{{R}^{2}}}{\frac{3}{2}M{{R}^{2}}}=\frac{5}{6}\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{I}_{perpendicular}}=\frac{6}{5}I\]
