Two loops $P$ and $Q$ are made from a uniform wire. The radii of $P$ and $Q$ are $r_1$ and $r_2$ respectively,and their moments of inertia are $I_1$ and $I_2$ respectively. If $I_2/I_1 = 4$,then $\frac{r_2}{r_1}$ equals:

  • A
    $4^{2/3}$
  • B
    $4^{1/3}$
  • C
    $4^{-2/3}$
  • D
    $4^{-1/3}$

$A$ non-uniform rod $OM$ (of length $l$) is kept along the $x$-axis and is rotating about an axis $AB$,which is perpendicular to the rod as shown in the figure. The rod has a linear mass density that varies with the distance $r$ from the left end $O$ of the rod according to $\lambda = \lambda_0 \left( \frac{r^3}{l^3} \right)$,where $\lambda_0$ is a constant. If the axis $AB$ is at a distance $x$ from the end $O$,what is the value of $x$ such that the moment of inertia of the rod about the axis $AB$ $(I_{AB})$ is minimum?

Five masses,each of $2\, kg$,are placed on a horizontal circular disc that can rotate about a vertical axis passing through its center. All masses are equidistant from the axis at a distance of $10\, cm$. Calculate the moment of inertia of the whole system in $gm-cm^2$. (Assume the disc has negligible mass.)
