$A$ thin uniform rectangular plate of mass $2 \, kg$ is placed in the $xy$-plane as shown in the figure. The moment of inertia about the $x$-axis is $I_{x}=0.2 \, kg \cdot m^{2}$ and the moment of inertia about the $y$-axis is $I_{y}=0.3 \, kg \cdot m^{2}$. The radius of gyration of the plate about the axis passing through $O$ and perpendicular to the plane of the plate is (in $ \, cm$)

$A$ thin metal rod of mass $M$ and length $L$ is cut into $4$ equal parts by cutting it perpendicular to its length. If the moment of inertia of the rod about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its axis is $I$,then what is the moment of inertia of each part about a similar axis?

Five masses,each of $2\, kg$,are placed on a horizontal circular disc,which can be rotated about a vertical axis passing through its centre. All the masses are equidistant from the axis at a distance of $10\, cm$. The moment of inertia of the whole system (in $g\cdot cm^2$) is: (Assume the disc is of negligible mass)
