The moment of inertia of a cylinder of mass $M$,length $L$,and radius $R$ about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder is $I = M \left(\frac{R^2}{4} + \frac{L^2}{12}\right)$. If such a cylinder is to be made for a given mass of material,the ratio $L/R$ for it to have the minimum possible $I$ is
