        One solid sphere A and another hollow sphere B are of same mass and same outer radii. Their moment of inertia about their diameters are respectively\[{{I}_{A}}\]and\[{{I}_{B}}\]such that

    A)  \[{{I}_{A}}={{I}_{B}}\]                  

    B)  \[{{I}_{A}}>{{I}_{B}}\]

    C)  \[{{I}_{A}}<{{I}_{B}}\]                  

    D)  \[\frac{{{I}_{A}}}{{{I}_{B}}}=\frac{{{d}_{A}}}{{{d}_{B}}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    Let same mass and same outer radii of solid Sphere and hollow sphere are M and R respectively. The moment of inertia of solid sphere A about its diameter \[{{I}_{A}}=\frac{2}{5}M{{R}^{2}}\]                        ...(i) Similarly, the moment of inertia of hollow sphere (spherical shell) B about its diameter \[{{I}_{B}}=\frac{2}{3}M{{R}^{2}}\]                     ...(ii) It is clear from Eqs, (i) and (ii),\[{{I}_{A}}<{{I}_{B}}\]is. where\[{{d}_{A}}\]and\[{{d}_{B}}\]are their densities.
