The moment of inertia of a solid sphere about its diameter is $I$. It is then recast into $27$ small spheres of the same diameter. The moment of inertia of each small sphere about its diameter is:

  • A
    $\frac{I}{44}$
  • B
    $\frac{I}{188}$
  • C
    $\frac{I}{204}$
  • D
    $\frac{I}{243}$

Two point masses of $0.3 \ kg$ and $0.7 \ kg$ are fixed at the ends of a rod of length $1.4 \ m$ and of negligible mass. The rod is set rotating about an axis perpendicular to its length with a uniform angular speed. The point on the rod through which the axis should pass in order that the work required for rotation of the rod is minimum is located at a distance of
