Four spheres,each of mass $M$ and radius $a$,are placed at the four corners of a square of side $b$. Calculate the moment of inertia of the system about one of the sides of the square as the axis.

  • A
    $\frac{1}{5} M (4a + 5b^2)$
  • B
    $\frac{7}{5} M (4a^2 - 5b^2)$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{5} M (4a + 5b)$
  • D
    $\frac{2}{5} M (4a^2 + 5b^2)$

$A$ lamina is made by removing a small disc of diameter $2R$ from a bigger disc of uniform mass density and radius $2R$,as shown in the figure. The moment of inertia of this lamina about axes passing through $O$ and $P$ is $I_0$ and $I_P$,respectively. Both these axes are perpendicular to the plane of the lamina. The ratio $\frac{I_P}{I_0}$ to the nearest integer is:

For the given uniform square lamina $ABCD$,whose centre is $O$,which of the following relations is correct?
