Magnetic Effects Of Current Question 403

Question: Consider a hypothetic spherical body. The body is cut into two parts about the diameter. One of hemispherical portion has mass distribution m whie the other portion has identical charge distribution q. The body is rotated about the axis with constant speed o. Then, the ratio of magnetic moment to angular momentum is
