Question

The moment of inertia of a solid cylinder of mass 'm', radius 'R' and length 'l' about the longitudinal axis or polar axis is-

A.

mR²/2

B.

mR²/4

C.

mR²/8

D.

mR²/6

Correct option is A


The moment of inertia of a solid cylinder of mass m, radius R, and length l about its longitudinal axis (polar axis) is given by the formula:
I = mR²/2
This formula represents the resistance of the cylinder to rotational motion about its longitudinal axis.
