MCQ
A circular hole of diameter $R$ is cut from a disc of mass $M$ and radius $R ;$ the circumference of the cut passes through the centre of the disc . The moment of inertia of the remaining portion of the disc about an axis perpendicular to the disc and passing through its centre is
  • A
    $\left( {\frac{{15}}{{32}}} \right)\,M{R^2}$
  • B
    $\left( {\frac{{1}}{{8}}} \right)\,M{R^2}$
  • C
    $\left( {\frac{{3}}{{8}}} \right)\,M{R^2}$
  • $\left( {\frac{{13}}{{32}}} \right)\,M{R^2}$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$\left( {\frac{{13}}{{32}}} \right)\,M{R^2}$
d
$M.I$ of complete disc about its center $O.$

${l_{Total}} = \frac{1}{2}M{R^2}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,....\left( i \right)$

Mass of circular hole (removed)

$ = \frac{M}{4}\left( {As\,M = \pi {R^2}t\therefore M \propto {R^2}} \right)$

$M.I.$ of removed hole about its own ax is 

$ = \frac{1}{2}\left( {\frac{M}{4}} \right){\left( {\frac{R}{2}} \right)^2} = \frac{1}{{32}}M{R^2}$

$M.I.$ of removed hole about $O'$

$\begin{array}{l}
{I_{removed\,hole}} = {I_{cm}} + m{x^2}\\
\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = \frac{{M{R^2}}}{{32}} + \frac{M}{4}{\left( {\frac{R}{2}} \right)^2}\\
\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = \frac{{M{R^2}}}{{32}} + \frac{{M{R^2}}}{{16}} = \frac{{3M{R^2}}}{{32}}
\end{array}$

$M.I.$ of complete disc can also be written as

$\begin{array}{l}
{I_{Total}} = {I_{removed\,hole}} + {I_{re\min ing\,disc}}\\
{I_{Total}} = \frac{{3M{R^2}}}{{32}} + {I_{remaining\,disc}}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,...\left( {ii} \right)
\end{array}$

Form eq. $(i)$ and $(ii)$,

$\begin{array}{l}
\frac{1}{2}M{R^2} = \frac{{3M{R^2}}}{{32}} + {I_{remaining\,disc}}\\
 \Rightarrow {I_{remaining\,disc}}\\
\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = \frac{{M{R^2}}}{2} + \frac{{3M{R^2}}}{{32}} = \left( {\frac{{13}}{{32}}} \right)M{R^2}
\end{array}$
