A uniform circular disc of radius 'R' and mass 'M' is rotating about an axis perpendicular to its plane and passing through its centre. A small circular part of radius R/2 is removed from the original disc as shown in the figure. Find the moment of inertia of the remaining part of the original disc about the axis as given above.
Select the correct option:
A
$\frac{9}{32} \mathrm{MR}^2$
B
$\frac{17}{32} \mathrm{MR}^2$
C
$\frac{13}{32} \mathrm{MR}^2$
D
$\frac{7}{32} \mathrm{MR}^2$

Solution
$\begin{aligned} & I=\frac{M R^2}{2}-\left[\frac{\frac{M}{4}\left(\frac{R}{2}\right)^2}{2}+\frac{M}{4}\left(\frac{R}{2}\right)^2\right] \\ & I=\frac{13}{32} M R^2\end{aligned}$
