    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.
