$A$ solid sphere of mass $5 \text{ kg}$ and a disc of mass $4 \text{ kg}$ have the same radius. The ratio of the moment of inertia of the sphere about its tangent to the moment of inertia of the disc about a tangent in its plane will be $x : y$. The value of $x$ and $y$ respectively is

Seven identical coins are rigidly arranged on a flat table in the pattern shown below,so that each coin touches its neighbours. Each coin is a thin disc of mass $m$ and radius $r$. Note that the moment of inertia of an individual coin about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to the plane of the coin is $\frac{m r^2}{2}$. The moment of inertia of the system of seven coins about an axis that passes through the point $P$ (the centre of the coin positioned directly to the right of the central coin) and perpendicular to the plane of the coins is ..........$m r^2$.
