Seven identical coins are rigidly arranged on a flat table in the pattern shown below,so that each coin touches its neighbours. Each coin is a thin disc of mass $m$ and radius $r$. Note that the moment of inertia of an individual coin about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to the plane of the coin is $\frac{m r^2}{2}$. The moment of inertia of the system of seven coins about an axis that passes through the point $P$ (the centre of the coin positioned directly to the right of the central coin) and perpendicular to the plane of the coins is ..........$m r^2$.

The $X$ and $Z$ axes are mutually perpendicular in the plane of a disc,and the $Y$ axis is perpendicular to the plane of the disc. If the moments of inertia of the object about the $X$ and $Y$ axes are $30 \ kg \ m^2$ and $40 \ kg \ m^2$ respectively,then the moment of inertia about the $Z$ axis will be ....... $kg \ m^2$.

Three spheres,each of mass $m$ and radius $r$,are placed as shown in the figure. Consider an axis $YY^1$,which is tangent to two spheres (labeled $2$ and $3$) and passes through the diameter of the third sphere (labeled $1$). The moment of inertia of the system consisting of these three spheres about the $YY^1$ axis is:

$A$ thin wire of length $L$ and uniform linear mass density $\lambda$ is bent into a circular coil. The moment of inertia of this coil about a tangential axis in the plane of the coil is:
