The radius of gyration of a body about an axis at a distance 6 cm from its centre of mass is 10 cm. Then its radius of gyration about a parallel axis through its centre of mass will be in cm is |

From the theorem of parallel axis, the moment of inertia is equal to
where moment of inertia is about centre of mass and the distance of axis from centre.
