$A$ circular disc is made using iron and aluminum such that its moment of inertia about its geometric axis is maximum. For this to happen:

  • A
    The layers of iron and aluminum should be in alternating order.
  • B
    The inner part should be made of aluminum and the outer part of iron.
  • C
    The inner part should be made of iron and the outer part of aluminum.
  • D
    $A$ or $C$.

$A$ uniform solid cylinder with radius $R$ and length $L$ has a moment of inertia $I_1$ about its central axis. $A$ concentric solid cylinder of radius $R' = \frac{R}{2}$ and length $L' = \frac{L}{2}$ is carved out of the original cylinder. If $I_2$ is the moment of inertia of the carved-out portion of the cylinder about the same axis,then $\frac{I_1}{I_2} = ..........$
