The moment of inertia of a solid disc made of thin metal of radius $R$ and mass $M$ about one of its diameters is given by $\frac{M R^2}{4}$. What will be the moment of inertia about this axis,if the disc is folded in half about this diameter?

  • A
    $\frac{M R^2}{8}$
  • B
    $\frac{M R^2}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{M R^2}{4}$
  • D

$A$ thin metal rod of mass $M$ and length $L$ is cut into four equal parts by cutting it perpendicular to its length. If the moment of inertia of the rod about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its length is $I$,then the moment of inertia of each part about an axis passing through its own centre and perpendicular to its length is:
