$A$ solid sphere of radius $r = 5 \text{ cm}$ is rotating about an axis at a distance $d = 10 \text{ cm}$ from its center, as shown in the figure. If the radius of gyration about that axis is $\sqrt{x} \text{ cm}$, then the value of $x$ is:

  • A
    $100$
  • B
    $110$
  • C
    $120$
  • D
    $140$

Four hollow spheres,each with a mass of $1\, kg$ and a radius $R = 10\, cm$,are connected with massless rods to form a square with a side of length $L = 50\, cm$. In case-$1$,the masses rotate about an axis that bisects two sides of the square. In case-$2$,the masses rotate about an axis that passes through the diagonal of the square,as shown in the figure. Compute the ratio of the moments of inertia $I_1/I_2$ for the two cases.
