From a disc of radius $R$,a concentric circular portion of radius $r$ is cut out so as to leave an annular disc of mass $M$. The moment of inertia of this annular disc about the axis perpendicular to its plane and passing through its centre of gravity is

  • A
    $\frac{1}{2} M(R^{2}+r^{2})$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2} M(R^{2}-r^{2})$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2} M(R^{4}+r^{4})$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2} M(R^{4}-r^{4})$
