If the radius of gyration of a thin circular ring about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its plane is $10 \sqrt{2} \,cm$, then its radius of gyration about its diameter is

From a uniform wire,two circular loops are made: $(i)$ $P$ of radius $r$ and (ii) $Q$ of radius $nr$. If the moment of inertia of $Q$ about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its plane is $8$ times that of $P$ about a similar axis,the value of $n$ is (diameter of the wire is very much smaller than $r$ or $nr$).

Four hollow spheres,each with a mass of $1\, kg$ and a radius $R = 10\, cm$,are connected with massless rods to form a square with a side of length $L = 50\, cm$. In case-$1$,the masses rotate about an axis that bisects two sides of the square. In case-$2$,the masses rotate about an axis that passes through the diagonal of the square,as shown in the figure. Compute the ratio of the moments of inertia $I_1/I_2$ for the two cases.
