JEE Main Physics question
A thin uniform square lamina of side is placed in the -plane with its sides parallel to the - and -axes, and its centre coinciding with the origin. Its moment of inertia about an axis passing through a point on the -axis at a distance and parallel to the -axis is equal to its moment of inertia about an axis passing through a point on the -axis at a distance and perpendicular to the -plane. The value of is
Answer: (B)
Solution
, so by parallel axis, the axis at parallel to : . For the perpendicular (z-direction) axis through the centre, (sum of the two in-plane
