Suppose there is a uniform circular disc of mass $M$ and radius $r$ shown in the figure. Two shaded circular regions, each of radius $r/4$, are cut out from the disc. The centers of these cut-out discs are at a distance of $3r/4$ from the center of the original disc. The moment of inertia of the remaining part about the axis $A$ (passing through the center of the disc and perpendicular to its plane) is given by $\frac{x}{256} Mr^2$. The value of $x$ is . . . . . . .

If the moment of inertia of a thin circular ring about an axis passing through its edge and perpendicular to its plane is $I$, then the moment of inertia of the ring about its diameter is

The moment of inertia of a rod about an axis passing through its center of mass and perpendicular to it is $\frac{1}{12}ML^2$. If the rod is bent at the middle such that the two halves make an angle of $90^{\circ}$ in the same plane,what will be the moment of inertia of the system about the same axis?
