Two circular rings 'A' and 'B' of radii 'nR' and 'R' are made from the same wire. The
moment of inertia of 'A' about an axis passing through the centre and
perpendicular to the plane of 'A' is 64 times that of the ring 'B'. The value of ' \(n\) ' is

  1. A 8
  2. B 3
  3. C 6
  4. D 4
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 4

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{A}}}{\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{B}}}=\frac{64}{1}\)
\(64=\frac{m_{A} r_{A}^{2}}{m_{B} r_{B}^{2}}=\frac{2 \pi r_{A}}{2 \pi r_{B}} \frac{r_{A}^{2}}{r_{B}^{2}}=\frac{r_{A}^{3}}{r_{B}^{3}}=n^{3}\)
\(\therefore n=4\)
