Two discs of the same thickness but different radii are made of two different materials such that their masses are equal. The densities of the materials are in the ratio $1:3$. The ratio of the moments of inertia of the discs about the axes passing through their centers and perpendicular to their planes is:

  • A
    $1:3$
  • B
    $3:1$
  • C
    $1:9$
  • D
    $9:1$

The given figure shows a disc of mass $M$ and radius $R$ lying in the $x-y$ plane with its center on the $x$-axis at a distance $a$ from the origin. Then,the moment of inertia of the disc about the $x$-axis is:

Moment of inertia of a thin uniform rod of length $L$ and mass $M$ rotating about the perpendicular axis passing through its centre is $I$. If the same rod is bent in the form of a ring,its moment of inertia about the diameter is $I_1$. If $I_1 = xI$,then the value of $x$ is:

$A$ solid sphere of radius $r = 5 \text{ cm}$ is rotating about an axis at a distance $d = 10 \text{ cm}$ from its center, as shown in the figure. If the radius of gyration about that axis is $\sqrt{x} \text{ cm}$, then the value of $x$ is:

The figure shows two solid discs with radius $R$ and $r$ respectively. If the mass per unit area is the same for both,what is the ratio of the moment of inertia $(MI)$ of the bigger disc about axis $AB$ (which is perpendicular to the plane of the disc and passing through its centre) to the $MI$ of the smaller disc about one of its diameters lying on its plane? Given $M$ is the mass of the larger disc.
