$A$ spherical shell has a mass one-fourth that of a solid sphere,and both have the same moment of inertia $(M.I.)$ about their respective diameters. The ratio of their radii will be:

  • A
    $1 : 2$
  • B
    $\sqrt{12} : \sqrt{5}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{3} : \sqrt{20}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{5} : \sqrt{20}$
