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.

Two rings have their masses in ratio $1 : 2$ and their diameters are in the ratio $2 : 1$. The ratio of their moments of inertia is

$A$ thin metal wire of length $L$ and mass $M$ is bent to form a semicircular ring as shown. The moment of inertia about the axis $XX^1$ passing through its ends is:

Three balls of masses $2 \,kg$,$4 \,kg$,and $6 \,kg$ are placed at the midpoints of the sides of an equilateral triangle of side length $2 \,m$. The moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through the centroid and perpendicular to the plane of the triangle is . . . . . .$kg \,m^2$.

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.
