$A$ one-quarter sector is cut from a uniform circular disc of radius $R$. This sector has mass $M$. It is made to rotate about a line perpendicular to its plane and passing through the centre of the original disc. Its moment of inertia 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
    $\sqrt{2}MR^2$
