Two discs have mass ratio 1 : 2 and diameter ratio 2 : 1, then find the ratio of their moments of inertia.
 

a
2 : 1
b
1 : 1
c
1 : 2
d
2 : 3

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Given, mass ratio of two discs,m1:m2=1:2, i.e. m1m2=12and  diameter ratio,  d1d2=21⇒r1r2=21∴  Ratio of their moments of inertia,I1I2=m1r122m2r222=m1m2⋅r1r22=12212=21∴ I1:I2=2:1
