    Moment of inertia of a solid sphere calculation

    How would one calculate the moment of inertia of a solid sphere (of uniform density, rotating about the axis through its center)? I know it's 2MR^{2}/5 but I got 3MR^{2}/5 when I attempted to derive it (just for fun, because I find rotational dynamics rather interesting). I would prefer a...
