If the moment of inertia of a uniform solid cylinder about the axis of the cylinder is \(\frac{1}{n}\) times its moment of inertia about an axis passing through its midpoint and perpendicular to its length, then the ratio of the length and radius of the cylinder is

  1. A \(\sqrt{2(3 n+1)}\)
  2. B \(\sqrt{2(3 n-1)}\)
  3. C \(\sqrt{3(2 n+1)}\)
  4. D \(\sqrt{3(2 n-1)}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\sqrt{3(2 n-1)}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(I_{axis} = \frac{1}{2} M R^2\) \(I_{\perp} = \frac{1}{4} M R^2 + \frac{1}{12} M L^2\) \(\frac{1}{2} M R^2 = \frac{1}{n} \left( \frac{1}{4} M R^2 + \frac{1}{12} M L^2 \right)\) \(\frac{n}{2} R^2 = \frac{1}{4} R^2 + \frac{1}{12} L^2\)…
