Question

Statement-1: if moment of inertia of a rigid body is equal about two axis, then both the axis must be parallel.
Statement-2 from parallel axis theorem `I=I_(cm)+md^(2)`, where all terms have usual meaning.
A. Statement-1 is true, Statement-2: is true, Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1.
B. Statement-1 is true, Statement-2: is true, Statement-2 is NOT a correct explanation for Statement-1.
C. Statement-1 is true but statement-2 is false
D. Both statement 1 false and statement 2 are true.

Answer 1

Correct Answer - D
For a uniform solid sphere moment of inertia about any axis passing through centre is same. All this axis are not parallel. Hence Statement-1 is false, Statement-2 is True.
