The moment of inertia of a solid disc rotating about its diameter is $2.5$ times higher than the moment of inertia of a ring rotating in a similar way. The moment of inertia of a solid sphere which has the same radius as the disc and is rotating in a similar way,is $n$ times higher than the moment of inertia of the given ring. Here,$n=$ . . . . . . . Consider all the bodies have equal masses.
