  • A
    $5:7$
  • B
    $3:5$
  • C
    $\sqrt{3}:\sqrt{5}$
  • D

$Assertion$ : $A$ judo fighter,in order to throw his opponent onto the mat,tries to initially bend his opponent and then rotate him around his hip.
$Reason$ : As the mass of the opponent is brought closer to the fighter's hip,the moment of inertia of the opponent about the axis of rotation decreases,which makes it easier to rotate the opponent.

Three bodies have equal masses $m$. Body $A$ is a solid cylinder of radius $R$,body $B$ is a square lamina of side $R$,and body $C$ is a solid sphere of radius $R$. Which body has the smallest moment of inertia about an axis passing through their centre of mass and perpendicular to the plane (in case of lamina)?
