    The moment of inertia of a uniform semicircular disc of mass M and radius  r about a line  perpendicular to the plane of the disc through the center is :d

    A circular disc X of radius R is made from an iron plate of thickness t  and another disc Y of radius 4R  is made from an iron plate of thickness t/4. Then the relation between the moment of inertia. I_{X} and I_{Y} is :

    What is the moment of inertia of a disc having inner radius $R_1$ and outer radius $R_2$ about the axis passing through the center and perpendicular to the plane as shown in diagram? 

    The moment of inertia of a uniform circular disc is maximum about an axis perpendicular to the disc and passing through:

     

    A thin circular disk is in the xy plane as shown in the figure. The ratio of its
    moment of inertia about z and z' axes will be :

    Moment of inertia of a DISC

    Let I=Moment of inertia of a DISC about an axis through its center and perpendicular to its plane 

    To calculate I 

    Consider a circular disc of mass M, radius R, and center O.

    And mass per unit area  = $\sigma=\frac{M}{\pi R^2}$

    Take an elementary ring of mass dm of radius x as shown in figure

     $\begin{aligned} & \text { So, } \begin{aligned} d m & =\sigma *(2 \pi x d x)=\frac{M}{\pi R^2} *(2 \pi x d x) \\ \Rightarrow d I & =x^2 d m \\ I & =\int d I=\int_0^R x^2 *\left(\frac{M}{\pi R^2} *(2 \pi x d x)\right)=\frac{2 M}{R^2} \int_0^R x^3 d x=\frac{M R^2}{2}\end{aligned}\end{aligned}$
