Point masses $1, 2, 3$ and $4 \text{ kg}$ are lying at the points $(0,0,0), (2,0,0), (0,3,0)$ and $(-2,-2,0)$ respectively. The moment of inertia of this system about the $x$-axis will be:

  • A
    $43 \text{ kg} \cdot \text{m}^2$
  • B
    $34 \text{ kg} \cdot \text{m}^2$
  • C
    $27 \text{ kg} \cdot \text{m}^2$
  • D
    $72 \text{ kg} \cdot \text{m}^2$
