Question:medium

A thin uniform wire of mass 'm' and linear density '\(\rho\)' is bent in the form of a circular ring. The moment of inertia of the ring about a tangent parallel to its diameter is

Show Hint

The Parallel Axis Theorem is crucial for finding the moment of inertia about any axis, given the moment of inertia about a parallel axis through the center of mass. Remember the formula: \(I = I_{cm} + Md^2\).
