Expert Solution
Step 1 Calculate mass moment of inertia

Assume that the mass moment of inertia of central part of ring will be IIR=0 ; due to there is not given the mass of central plate. but assume that mass of central late is 0.1 kg so 

Mass moment of inertia of central plate is =0.1×92=8.1 Kg.cm2 ;

Mass moment of inertia due to rectangular plate will be =Ispoke=112[mass of plate×(l2+w2)]=112[0.8×(242+62)] =40.8 Kg.cm2;

So the total no of spokes=5 

The total moment of inertia due to spokes=5×Ispoke=5×40.8=204 Kg.cm2 ;

Mass moment of inertia of outer ring will be =IOR=1.4×302=1260 Kg.cm2 ;

So the total mass moment of inertia about G will be IG=8.1+204+1260=1472.1 Kg.cm2 ;
