Two circular discs $A$ and $B$ are of equal masses and thickness but made of metals with densities ${d_A}$ and ${d_B}$ $({d_A} > {d_B})$. If their moments of inertia about an axis passing through their centres and normal to the circular faces are ${I_A}$ and ${I_B}$ respectively,then:

  • A
    ${I_A} = {I_B}$
  • B
    ${I_A} > {I_B}$
  • C
    ${I_A} < {I_B}$
  • D
    ${I_A} \ge {I_B}$
