JEE MAIN - Physics (2017 - 9th April Morning Slot - No. 2)

A circular hole of radius $${R \over 4}$$ is made in a thin uniform disc having mass M and radius R, as shown in figure. The moment of inertia of the remaining portion of the disc about an axis passing through the point O and perpendicular to the plane of the disc is :

JEE Main 2017 (Online) 9th April Morning Slot Physics - Rotational Motion Question 181 English
$${{219\,M{R^2}} \over {256}}$$
$${{237\,M{R^2}} \over {512}}$$
$${{19\,M{R^2}} \over {512}}$$
$${{197\,M{R^2}} \over {256}}$$

Explanation

Mass of removed disc = $${M \over {16}}$$ Radius of removed disc = $${R \over 4}$$

Moment of inertia of removed disc about it's own axis (O')

= $${1 \over 2}$$ $$ \times $$ $${M \over {16}}$$ $$ \times $$ $${\left( {{R \over 4}} \right)^2}$$ = $${{M{R^2}} \over {512}}$$

Moment of inertia of removed disc about O,

= Icm + mx2

= $${{M{R^2}} \over {512}}$$ + $${M \over {16}}{\left( {{{3R} \over 4}} \right)^2}$$

= $${{19M{R^2}} \over {512}}$$

Moment of inertia of complete disc about point 'O',

I = $${{M{R^2}} \over 2}$$

$$\therefore\,\,\,$$ Moment of Inertia of remaining disc

= $${{M{R^2}} \over 2}$$ $$-$$ $${{19M{R^2}} \over {512}}$$

= $${{237M{R^2}} \over {512}}$$
