Five masses,each of $2\, kg$,are placed on a horizontal circular disc,which can be rotated about a vertical axis passing through its centre. All the masses are equidistant from the axis at a distance of $10\, cm$. The moment of inertia of the whole system (in $g\cdot cm^2$) is: (Assume the disc is of negligible mass)

Two point masses of $0.3 \ kg$ and $0.7 \ kg$ are fixed at the ends of a rod of length $1.4 \ m$ and of negligible mass. The rod is set rotating about an axis perpendicular to its length with a uniform angular speed. The point on the rod through which the axis should pass in order that the work required for rotation of the rod is minimum is located at a distance of
