Consider a sphere of mass $M$ and radius $R$ centered at the origin. The density of the material of the sphere is $\rho = A r^\alpha$, where $r$ is the radial distance, and $\alpha$ and $A$ are constants. If the moment of inertia of the sphere about the axis passing through the centre is $\frac{6}{7} M R^2$, then the value of $\alpha$ is
