Question 1
2 May 2023 S2
5A solid sphere of mass 'm', radius 'R', having moment of inertia about an axis passing through centre of mass as 'I' is recast into a disc of thickness 't' whose moment of inertia about an axis passing through the rim (edge) and perpendicular to plane remains 'I'. Then the radius of disc isTap an option to check your answer.
Question 2

33A solid metallic sphere of radius 'R' having moment of inertia 'I' about diameter is melted and recast into a solid disc of radius 'r' of a uniform thickness. The moment of inertia of a disc about an axis passing through its edge and perpendicular to its plane is also equal to 'I'. The ratio isTap an option to check your answer.
