Two rings of the same radius and mass are placed such that their centres are at a common point and their planes are perpendicular to each other. The moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through the centre and perpendicular to the plane of one of the rings is (mass of the ring $= m$,radius $= r$)

$A$ disc of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is free to rotate about its vertical axis as shown in the figure. $A$ battery-operated motor of negligible mass is fixed to this disc at a point on its circumference. Another disc of the same mass $M$ and radius $R/2$ is fixed to the motor's thin shaft. Initially,both the discs are at rest. The motor is switched on so that the smaller disc rotates at a uniform angular speed $\omega$. If the angular speed at which the large disc rotates is $\omega/n$,then the value of $n$ is. . . . .
