$A$ circular disc of radius $b$ has a hole of radius $a$ at its centre (see figure). If the mass per unit area of the disc varies as $\sigma(r) = \frac{\sigma_0}{r}$,then the radius of gyration of the disc about its axis passing through the centre is

  • A
    $\frac{a + b}{3}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\frac{a^2 + b^2 + ab}{3}}$
  • C
    $\frac{a + b}{2}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{\frac{a^2 + b^2 + ab}{2}}$
