Five masses,each of $2\, kg$,are placed on a horizontal circular disc,which can be rotated about a vertical axis passing through its centre. All the masses are equidistant from the axis at a distance of $10\, cm$. The moment of inertia of the whole system (in $g\cdot cm^2$) is: (Assume the disc is of negligible mass)

  • A
    $10^5$
  • B
    $10^4$
  • C
    $10^6$
  • D
    $10^8$

$A$ solid sphere $A$ of radius $R$ and mass $M$ is attached at a point to a smaller solid sphere $B$ of radius $r < R$ and mass $m < M$. Assume that the line joining their centres lies along the horizontal. The moment of inertia of the system calculated about a vertical axis passing through the centre of $A$ is $I_A$ and that calculated about a vertical axis passing through the centre of $B$ is $I_B$. The difference $I_A - I_B$ is :
