Moment of Inertia & Radius of Gyration

Two circular loops P and Q of radii ' r ' and ' nr ' are made respectively from a uniform wire. Moment of inertia of loop Q about its axis is four times that of loop P about its axis. The value of ' nn ' is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. Same wire: M∝RM \propto R, so I∝R3I \propto R^3.
  2. n3=4⇒n=22/3n^3 = 4 \Rightarrow n = 2^{2/3}
  3. So the answer is (b) (2)2/3(2)^{2/3}.
