System Of Particles And Rotational Motion Ques 62

62. The ratio of the radii of gyration of a circular disc about a tangential axis in the plane of the disc and of a circular ring of the same radius about a tangential axis in the plane of the ring is [2004]

(a) $1: \sqrt{2}$

(b) $1: 3$

(c) $2: 1$

(d) $\sqrt{ } 5: \sqrt{ } 6$

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 62.(d)

Solution:

(d)

$I _{y_1}=\frac{M R^{2}}{4} \quad \therefore I_y_1^{\prime}=\frac{M R^{2}}{4}+M R^{2}=\frac{5}{4} M R^{2}$

So, if moment of inertia $(mr^{2})$ decreases K.E. of rotation increases and vice versa.
