A uniform annulus with mass MM has an inner radius of R1R_1 and an outer radius of R2.R_2. Compute the moment of inertia of the annulus about its axis of symmetry.

When you get your answer, check the following two cases: R1=R2=RR_1 = R_2 = R R1=0,R2=RR_1 = 0, R_2 = R What does the annulus look like in these cases? Does your answer agree with what you already know about these special cases?
