From a disc of mass 'M' and radius 'R' a circular hole of diameter $\mathrm{R}$ is cut whose rim passes through the centre. The moment of inertia of the remaining part of the disc about perpendicular axis passing through the centre is
  1. $\frac{11 \mathrm{MR}^{2}}{32}$
  2. $\frac{7 \mathrm{MR}^{2}}{32}$
  3. $\frac{9 \mathrm{MR}^{2}}{32}$
  4. $\frac{13 \mathrm{MR}^{2}}{32}$

Solution

\(\mathrm{I}_{\text {T otal disc }}=\frac{\mathrm{MR}^{2}}{2}\) As mass is proportional to area, \(\mathrm{M}_{\text {Removed }}=\frac{\mathrm{M}}{4}\) Now, about the same perpendicular axis: \(I_{\text {Removed }}=\frac{M}{4} \frac{(R / 2)^{2}}{2}+\frac{M}{4}\left(\frac{R}{2}\right)^{2}=\frac{3 \mathrm{MR}^{2}}{32}\) \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{I}_{\text {Remaining Disc }}=\mathrm{I}_{\text {Total }}-\mathrm{I}_{\text {Removed }}\) \(=\frac{\mathrm{MR}^{2}}{2}-\frac{3 \mathrm{MR}^{2}}{32}\) \(=\frac{13 \mathrm{MR}^{2}}{32}\) .
