MCQ

A uniform copper disk of radius \( R \) has a moment of inertia \( I \) around an axis passing through the center of the disk perpendicular to its plane. If the radius of the disk were only \( \dfrac{R}{2} \), but the thickness were the same, what would be the moment of inertia in terms of \( I \)? Hint: The moment of inertia of a solid disk about its center is \(\frac{1}{2} M R^{2}\).
