Assertion (A): If two different axes are at same distance from the centre of mass of a rigid body then moment of inertia of the given rigid body about both the axes will always be equal.
Reason (R): According to perpendicular axis theorem I=Icm+Md2\mathrm{I}=\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{cm}}+\mathrm{Md}^2 where symbols have their usual meaning.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Both (A) and (R) are false
Option D (Both (A) and (R) are false) is correct because the moment of inertia depends on the distribution of mass relative to the axis, and the parallel axis theorem is I=Icm+Md2\mathrm{I} = \mathrm{I}_{cm} + \mathrm{Md}^2, not the perpendicular axis theorem.
