  • A
    $ \frac{2}{5}MR^2 $
  • B
    $ \frac{2}{3}MR^2 $

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:

$A$ circular disc $A$ of radius $r$ is made from an iron plate of thickness $t$ and another circular disc $B$ of radius $4r$ is made from an iron plate of thickness $t/4$. The relation between the moments of inertia $I_A$ and $I_B$ is:

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
