$A$ body changes its angular speed from $\omega_1$ to $\omega_2$ without any external torque applied. This change is due to a change in its moment of inertia. What is the ratio of the radii of gyration in the two cases?

  • A
    $\sqrt{\omega_2} : \sqrt{\omega_1}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\omega_1} : \sqrt{\omega_2}$
  • C
    $\omega_1 : \omega_2$
  • D
    $\omega_2 : \omega_1$
