If the mass and radius of a hollow sphere are $M$ and $R$ respectively,then its moment of inertia with respect to its diameter is:

  • A
    $ \frac{2}{5}MR^2 $
  • B
    $ \frac{2}{3}MR^2 $
  • C
    $ \frac{1}{2}MR^2 $
  • D
    $ MR^2 $

The figure shows two solid discs with radius $R$ and $r$ respectively. If the mass per unit area is the same for both,what is the ratio of the moment of inertia $(MI)$ of the bigger disc about axis $AB$ (which is perpendicular to the plane of the disc and passing through its centre) to the $MI$ of the smaller disc about one of its diameters lying on its plane? Given $M$ is the mass of the larger disc.
