From a uniform wire,two circular loops are made: $(i)\ P$ of radius $r$ and $(ii)\ Q$ of radius $nr$. If the moment of inertia of $Q$ about an axis passing through its center and perpendicular to its plane is $8$ times that of $P$ about a similar axis,the value of $n$ is (diameter of the wire is very much smaller than $r$ or $nr$).
