The moment of inertia of a thin uniform rod of mass M and length L about an axis passing through its mid-point and perpendicular to its length is I0 , Its moment of inertia about an axis passing through one of its ends and perpendicular to its length is

a
I0+ML2/4
b
I0+2ML2
c
I0+ML2
d
I0+ML2/2

detailed solution

Correct option is A

According to parallel axes theorem, we haveIx′y′=Ixy+Md2=I0+ML22⇒ Ix′y′=I0+ML24
