Rotational Kinetic Energy, Work & Power

Two bodies rotate with kinetic energies 'E11' and 'E22'. Moments of inertia about their axis of rotation are 'I 11' and 'I22'. If I1=I23I_1 = \frac{I_2}{3} and E 11 = 27 E22, then the ratio of angular momenta 'L 11' to 'L22' is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. L=2IEL = \sqrt{2IE}
  2. L1L2=I1E1I2E2=13×27=3\frac{L_1}{L_2} = \sqrt{\frac{I_1 E_1}{I_2 E_2}} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{3} \times 27} = 3
  3. So the answer is (b) 3: 1.
