$A$ thin wire of length $L$ has a uniform linear mass density $\rho$. It is bent into a circular loop with center $O$. Calculate the moment of inertia of the circular loop about the axis $XX'$ as shown in the figure.

  • A
    $\frac{{\rho {L^3}}}{{8{\pi ^2}}}$
  • B
    $\frac{{\rho {L^3}}}{{16{\pi ^2}}}$
  • C
    $\frac{{5\rho {L^3}}}{{16{\pi ^2}}}$
  • D
    $\frac{{3\rho {L^3}}}{{8{\pi ^2}}}$
