  • A
    $L = \sqrt{2} R$
  • B
    $L = \sqrt{3} R$

$A$ thin uniform square lamina of side $a$ is placed in the $xy$-plane with its sides parallel to $X$ and $Y$-axes and with its centre coinciding with the origin. Its moment of inertia about an axis passing through a point on the $Y$-axis at a distance $y = 2a$ and parallel to the $X$-axis is equal to its moment of inertia about an axis passing through a point on the $X$-axis at a distance $x = d$ and perpendicular to the $xy$-plane. Then the value of $d$ is:
