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

$I_1$ is the moment of inertia of a circular disc about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to the plane of the disc. $I_2$ is its moment of inertia about an axis $AB$ perpendicular to the plane and parallel to the axis $CM$ at a distance $\frac{2R}{3}$ from the centre. The ratio of $I_2$ to $I_1$ is $\frac{I_2}{I_1} = \frac{x}{9}$. The value of $x$ is ($R =$ radius of the disc).
