$A$ circular disc of radius $R$ and thickness $\frac{R}{6}$ has moment of inertia $I$ about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its plane. It is melted and recasted into a solid sphere. The moment of inertia of the sphere about its diameter as axis of rotation is :

  • A
    $I$
  • B
    $\frac{2 I}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{I}{5}$
  • D
    $\frac{I}{10}$
