    From a circular disc of radius R and mass 9M, a small disc of mass M and radius \[\frac{R}{3}\]is removed concentrically. The moment of inertia of the remaining disc about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the disc and passing through its centre is

    A)  \[\frac{40}{9}M{{R}^{2}}\]

    B)  \[M{{R}^{2}}\]

    C)  \[4M{{R}^{2}}\]

    D)  \[\frac{4}{9}M{{R}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     The moment of inertia of the remaining disc about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the disc and passing through its centre \[I={{I}_{1}}-{{I}_{2}}\] \[=\frac{9M{{R}^{2}}}{2}-\frac{M{{R}^{2}}}{18}\] \[=\frac{81M{{R}^{2}}-M{{R}^{2}}}{18}\] \[=\frac{40M{{R}^{2}}}{9}\]
