$A$ thin wire of length $L$ and uniform linear mass density $\rho$ is bent into a circular loop (as shown in the figure) with center $O$. The moment of inertia of the loop about the axis $XX'$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{\rho L^3}{8\pi^2}$
  • B
    $\frac{\rho L^3}{16\pi^2}$
  • C
    $\frac{5\rho L^3}{16\pi^2}$
  • D
    $\frac{3\rho L^3}{8\pi^2}$
