$I_1$ is the moment of inertia of a circular disc about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to the plane of the disc. $I_2$ is its moment of inertia about an axis $AB$ perpendicular to the plane and parallel to the axis $CM$ at a distance $\frac{2R}{3}$ from the centre. The ratio of $I_2$ to $I_1$ is $\frac{I_2}{I_1} = \frac{x}{9}$. The value of $x$ is ($R =$ radius of the disc).

$A$ lamina is made by removing a small disc of diameter $2R$ from a bigger disc of uniform mass density and radius $2R$,as shown in the figure. The moment of inertia of this lamina about axes passing through $O$ and $P$ is $I_0$ and $I_P$,respectively. Both these axes are perpendicular to the plane of the lamina. The ratio $\frac{I_P}{I_0}$ to the nearest integer is:

$A$ solid sphere of radius $R$ and mass $M$ is rotating about its diameter. The moment of inertia of the solid sphere rotating about an axis at a distance $R/3$ from the centre and parallel to that diameter is
