Two loops $P$ and $Q$ are made from a uniform wire. The radii of $P$ and $Q$ are $r_1$ and $r_2$ respectively,and their moments of inertia are $I_1$ and $I_2$ respectively. If $I_2/I_1 = 4$,then $\frac{r_2}{r_1}$ equals:

  • A
    $4^{2/3}$
  • B
    $4^{1/3}$
  • C
    $4^{-2/3}$
  • D
    $4^{-1/3}$
