Two thin discs each of mass M and radius r are attached as shown in figure, to form a rigid body. The rotational inertia of this body about an axis perpendicular to the plane of disc B and passing through its centre is:

a
2Mr2
b
3Mr2
c
4Mr2
d
5Mr2

detailed solution

Correct option is D

I = IB+IA = 12Mr2+(12Mr2+M(2r)2) = 5Mr2
