Two discs have densities $d_1 = 7.2 \ g/cm^3$ and $d_2 = 8.9 \ g/cm^3$. Both discs have the same mass and the same thickness. Find the ratio of their moments of inertia.

  • A
    $8.9 / 7.2$
  • B
    $7.2 / 8.9$
  • C
    $(8.9 / 7.2) : 1$
  • D
    $1 : (8.9 / 7.2)$

Three particles,each of mass $m \; g$,are situated at the vertices of an equilateral triangle $ABC$ of side $l \; cm$ (as shown in the figure). The moment of inertia of the system about a line $AX$ perpendicular to $AB$ and in the plane of $ABC$ in $g \cdot cm^2$ units will be:

Let $M$ be the mass and $L$ be the length of a thin uniform rod. In the first case,the axis of rotation passes through the center and is perpendicular to the length of the rod. In the second case,the axis of rotation passes through one end and is perpendicular to the length of the rod. The ratio of the radius of gyration in the first case to the second case is
