Rotational Kinetic Energy, Work & Power

A body is rotating about its own axis. Its rotational kinetic energy is 'xx' and its angular momentum is 'yy'. Hence its moment of inertia about its own axis is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. K=L22IK = \frac{L^2}{2I}, with K=xK = x and L=yL = y.
  2. I=L22K=y22xI = \frac{L^2}{2K} = \frac{y^2}{2x}
  3. So the answer is (d) y22x\frac{y^2}{2x}.
