Question
Find the moment of inertia of a solid cylinder of diameter 1 m and mass 60 kg about its axis.
Correct Answer
Option B is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Radius r = 0.5 m. For solid cylinder about axis, I = ½MR² = ½ × 60 × (0.5)² = 30 × 0.25 = 7.5 kg·m².
Hint
I_solid cylinder = ½MR².
