Solution
The correct option is C(83−10π16)MR2 Assume mass of one of the removed disc is m.
Since mass is uniformly distributed, M4R×4R=mπR2 ⇒m=πM16 .....(i) Iremaining=Iplate−Iremoved =Iplate−4×Idisc
As we know,
MOI of plate Iplate=M12(a2+b2)
[Here , a=b=4R] ⇒Iplate=M12[(4R)2+(4R)2]=83MR2
and Idisc about z axis (by parallel axis theorem) Idisc=mR22+m(√2R)2
So, Iremaining=83MR2−4×(12×πM16×R2+πM16×2R2) (∵m=πM16) ⇒Iremaining=83MR2−4×52×πM16×R2=MR2(83−20π32)
or I=(83−10π16)MR2
