Moment of inertia of the rod about an axis passing through the centre and perpendicular to its length is ' \(\mathrm{I}_1\) '. The same rod is bent into a ring and its moment of inertia about the diameter is ' \(I_2\) '. Then \(I_1 / I_2\) is

  1. A \(\frac{3 \pi^2}{2}\)
  2. B \(\frac{2 \pi^2}{3}\)
  3. C \(\frac{\pi^2}{3}\)
  4. D \(\frac{\pi^2}{9}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{2 \pi^2}{3}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(I_1 = \frac{1}{12}ML^2\) \(L = 2\pi R \implies R = \frac{L}{2\pi}\)
