The wheels of moving vehicles are made hollow in the middle and thick at the rim because...

$A$ circular disc is to be made by using iron and aluminium,so that it acquires a large moment of inertia about its geometrical axis. This is possible with:

Two discs of same mass and same thickness have densities as $17 \, g/cm^3$ and $51 \, g/cm^3$. The ratio of their moment of inertia about their central axes is .........

Two circular discs $A$ and $B$ are of equal masses and thickness but made of metals with densities ${d_A}$ and ${d_B}$ $({d_A} > {d_B})$. If their moments of inertia about an axis passing through their centres and normal to the circular faces are ${I_A}$ and ${I_B}$ respectively,then:

$A$ straight rod of length $L$ is made of a material having mass per unit length $m(x) = \lambda|x|$, where $x$ is measured from the center of the rod. The moment of inertia about an axis perpendicular to the rod and passing through one end of the rod is to be calculated. Given $L = 1 \ m$ and $\lambda = 16 \ kg/m^2$.

$A$ semi-circular disc has mass $M$ and radius $r$. The moment of inertia about an axis passing through its center and perpendicular to the plane of the disc is:
