The moment of inertia of a thin semicircular disc (mass $= M$ and radius $= R$) about an axis passing through point $O$ and perpendicular to the plane of the disc is given by:

$A$ ring,a solid sphere,and a disc have the same mass and radius. Which of them has the largest moment of inertia?

$A$ rod has a length of $1 \ m$ and a mass of $0.12 \ kg$. The moment of inertia about an axis passing through its center and perpendicular to its length is ...... $kg \cdot m^2$.

Obtain the expression for the moment of inertia and define it. What are the factors on which the moment of inertia depends? Write its unit and dimensional formula.

$Assertion$ : Moment of inertia depends on the axis of rotation and the nature of distribution of the mass of the body.
$Reason$ : Moment of inertia is the rotational inertia of the body.

Two circular discs $A$ and $B$ are of equal masses and thickness but made of metals with densities ${d_A}$ and ${d_B}$ $({d_A} > {d_B})$. If their moments of inertia about an axis passing through their centres and normal to the circular faces are ${I_A}$ and ${I_B}$ respectively,then:
