When ice at the poles of the Earth melts,its moment of inertia will ........ .

Four rods are arranged in the form of a square. Calculate the moment of inertia about an axis passing through the center and perpendicular to the plane. (Mass $M$ and length $L$ for each rod)

The radius of gyration of a disc of mass $100\,g$ and radius $5\,cm$,about an axis passing through its centre of gravity and perpendicular to the plane,is ....... $cm$.

Three point masses,each of mass $m$,are placed at the corners of an equilateral triangle of side $\ell$. The moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through one of the vertices and parallel to the side joining the other two vertices is:

$A$ thin uniform rectangular plate of mass $2 \, kg$ is placed in the $xy$-plane as shown in the figure. The moment of inertia about the $x$-axis is $I_{x}=0.2 \, kg \cdot m^{2}$ and the moment of inertia about the $y$-axis is $I_{y}=0.3 \, kg \cdot m^{2}$. The radius of gyration of the plate about the axis passing through $O$ and perpendicular to the plane of the plate is (in $ \, cm$)

The moment of inertia of a cylinder of mass $M$,length $L$,and radius $R$ about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder is $I = M \left(\frac{R^2}{4} + \frac{L^2}{12}\right)$. If such a cylinder is to be made for a given mass of material,the ratio $L/R$ for it to have the minimum possible $I$ is
