$A$ circular plate of mass $M$ and radius $R$ has its density varying as $\rho(r) = \rho_0 r$,where $\rho_0$ is a constant and $r$ is the distance from its center. The moment of inertia of the circular plate about an axis perpendicular to the plate and passing through its edge is $I = aMR^2$. The value of the coefficient $a$ is:

  • A
    $8/5$
  • B
    $1/2$
  • C
    $3/5$
  • D
    $3/2$
