$A$ 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?

$A$ wheel of mass $10 \ kg$ has a moment of inertia of $160 \ kg \ m^2$ about its axis. Its radius of gyration is ...... $m$.

Two circular loops $P$ and $Q$ are made from a uniform wire. The radii of $P$ and $Q$ are $R_1$ and $R_2$ respectively. The moments of inertia about their own axis are $I_{P}$ and $I_{Q}$ respectively. If $\frac{I_{P}}{I_{Q}}=\frac{1}{8}$,then $\frac{R_2}{R_1}$ is
