Question

A uniform circular disc of radius R lies in the XY plane with its centre coinciding with the origin of the coordinate system. Its moment of inertia about an axis, lying in the XY plane, parallel to the X axis and passing through a point on the Y axis at a distance y=2R is I1. Its moment of inertia about an axis lying in a plane perpendicular to XY plane passing through a point on the X-axis at a distance x=d is I2. If I1=I2, the value of d is:

Solution

The correct option is C 152R

Moment of Inertia of disc in the plane of itself along one of its diameter is MR24

Using parallel axis theorem

I1=MR24+M(2R)2=17MR24

Using parallel axis theorem

I2=MR22+Md2.

equating I1=I2.

d=15R2
