The densities of two solid spheres A and B of the same radii R vary with radial distance r as ρAr=krR and ρBr=krR5, respectively, where k is a constant. The moments of inertia of the individual spheres about axes passing through their centers are IA and IB, respectively. If IBIA=n10, the value of n is

Detailed Solution
At a distance of r, select a hollow sphere of thickness dr and mass dm. Moment of Inertia of this elemental Hollow sphere is given by, dl=23(dm)r2 here dm=ρdV=ρ4πr2dr⇒dl=23ρ4πr2drr2 For Sphere A:ρ=krRdl=23krR4πr2drr2⇒IA=8kπ3R∫0R r5dr⇒IA=4kπR59 For Sphere B:ρ=krR5dI=23kr5R54πr2drr2⇒IB=8kπ3R5∫0R r9dr⇒IB=4kπR515 Ratio =IBIA=4kπR5154kπR59=35=610 So, n=6
