$A$ solid sphere of mass $M$ and radius $R$ has a moment of inertia $I$ about its diameter. It is recast into a disc of thickness $t$ whose moment of inertia about an axis passing through its edge and perpendicular to its plane remains $I$. The radius of the disc will be:

  • A
    $R/\sqrt{19}$
  • B
    $R/\sqrt{15}$
  • C
    $2R/\sqrt{15}$
  • D
    $2R/\sqrt{19}$

$A$ thin circular coin of mass $5 \text{ g}$ and radius $4/3 \text{ cm}$ is initially in a horizontal $xy$-plane. The coin is tossed vertically up ($+z$ direction) by applying an impulse of $J = \sqrt{\frac{\pi}{2}} \times 10^{-2} \text{ N-s}$ at a distance $r = 2/3 \text{ cm}$ from its center. The coin spins about its diameter and moves along the $+z$ direction. By the time the coin reaches back to its initial position,it completes $n$ rotations. The value of $n$ is. . . . .
