Questions  

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 centre is 
 

a
(1/4)Mr2
b
(2/5) Mr2
c
(1/2)Mr2
d
Mr2

detailed solution

Correct option is C

We know that the moment of inertia of a circular disc about an axis perpendicular to the plane of disc and passing through centre is  (1/2) Mr2. For semi-circular discI=1212(2M)r2=12Mr2
