$A$ quarter circular sector is cut from a uniform circular disc. The mass of this sector is $M$. It is rotated about an axis passing through the center of the original disc and perpendicular to its plane. The moment of inertia of this sector about the axis of rotation is:

  • A
    $ \frac{1}{2}MR^2 $
  • B
    $ \frac{1}{4}MR^2 $
  • C
    $ \frac{1}{8}MR^2 $
  • D
    $ \sqrt{2}MR^2 $
