$A$ thin uniform square lamina of side $a$ is placed in the $xy$-plane with its sides parallel to $X$ and $Y$-axes and with its centre coinciding with the origin. Its moment of inertia about an axis passing through a point on the $Y$-axis at a distance $y = 2a$ and parallel to the $X$-axis is equal to its moment of inertia about an axis passing through a point on the $X$-axis at a distance $x = d$ and perpendicular to the $xy$-plane. Then the value of $d$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{7}{3} a$
  • B
    $\frac{\sqrt{47}}{12} a$
  • C
    $\frac{9}{5} a$
  • D
    $\frac{\sqrt{51}}{12} a$
