  • A
    iron and aluminium layers in alternate order
  • B
    aluminium at the interior and iron surrounding it
  • C
    iron at the interior and aluminium surrounding it
  • D
    Either $(a)$ or $(c)$

The moment of inertia of a thin rod about an axis passing through its midpoint and perpendicular to the rod is $2400 \,g \,cm^2$. The length of the $400 \,g$ rod is nearly: (in $\,cm$)

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A$: Moment of inertia of a circular disc of mass $M$ and radius $R$ about $X, Y$ axes (passing through its plane) and $Z$-axis which is perpendicular to its plane were found to be $I_{x}, I_{y}$ and $I_{z}$ respectively. The respective radii of gyration about all the three axes will be the same.
Reason $R$: $A$ rigid body making rotational motion has fixed mass and shape.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

The ratio of radii of gyration of a ring to a disc (both circular) of same radii and mass,about a tangential axis perpendicular to the plane is
