  1. A 4:9
  2. B 2:3
  3. C 8:27
  4. D 16:81
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 4:9

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{\mathrm{R}_1}{\mathrm{R}_2}=\frac{2}{3}\) Moment of inertia, \(\mathrm{I}=\frac{2}{5} \mathrm{MR}^2\) \(\mathrm{I} \propto \mathrm{R}^2\) \[ \frac{I_1}{I_2}=\left(\frac{R_1}{R_2}\right)^2=\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^2=\frac{4}{9} \]
