The moments of inertia of two freely rotating bodies $A$ and $B$ are $I_{A}$ and $I_{B}$ respectively. Given $I_{A} > I_{B}$ and their angular momenta are equal. If $K_{A}$ and $K_{B}$ are their kinetic energies,then:

  • A
    $K_{A} = K_{B}$
  • B
    $K_{A} \neq K_{B}$
  • C
    $K_{A} < K_{B}$
  • D
    $K_{A} = 2 K_{B}$
