The moment of inertia of a rod of mass $40 \text{ kg}$ and length $3 \text{ m}$ about an axis $AB$ passing through its end and perpendicular to its length is equal to the moment of inertia of a solid sphere of mass $10 \text{ kg}$ and radius $R$ about an axis parallel to the $AB$ axis, with a separation of $3 \text{ m}$ between the axes, as shown in the figure. The value of $R$ is given as $\sqrt{\frac{\alpha}{2}}$. The value of $\alpha$ is . . . . . . .
