If the moment of inertia of a disc about an axis tangential and parallel to its surface be $I$, then what will be the moment of inertia about the axis tangential but perpendicular to the surface?
MI of disc about tangent in a place $\hspace5mm = \frac {5}{4}MR^2=I \, MR^2= \frac {4}{5}I$ MI of disc about tangent perpendicular to plane $\hspace10mm I'= \frac {3}{2}MR^2$ $\hspace10mm I'=\frac {3}{2}\bigg (\frac {4}{5}I\bigg )= \frac {6}{5}I$

Top Questions on System of Particles & Rotational Motion
The system of particles refers to the extended body which is considered a rigid body most of the time for simple or easy understanding. A rigid body is a body with a perfectly definite and unchangeable shape.
The distance between the pair of particles in such a body does not replace or alter. Rotational motion can be described as the motion of a rigid body originates in such a manner that all of its particles move in a circle about an axis with a common angular velocity.
The few common examples of rotational motion are the motion of the blade of a windmill and periodic motion.
