Question
A circular disc X of radius 'R' is made from an iron plate of thickness 't', and another disc Y of radius '4R' is made from an iron plate of thickness 't4'. Then the relation between the moment of inertia Ix and Iy is
Answer: Option A
:
A
Moment of Inertia of disc I=12MR2=12(πR2tρ)R2=12πtρR4
[As M=V×ρ=πR2tρ where t = thickness, ρ = density]
∴IyIx=tytx(RyRx)4 [ If ρ = constant]
⇒IyIx=14(4)4=64 [GivenRy=4Rx,ty=tx4]
⇒Iy=64Ix
