A uniform solid cylinder of length L and radius R has moment of inertia about its axis equal to I1. A small concentric cylinder of length L/2 and radius R/3 carved from this cylinder has moment of inertia about its axis equal to I2. The ratio I1/I2 is .

Answer

162

Solution

I1 = 12MR2, where M = R2 L

Mass of the small cylinder: m = ( R3 )2 L2 = M18

I2 = 12m ( R3 )2 = 12 M18 R29 = MR2324

I1I2 = MR2/2MR2/324 = 162

Answer: 162

Two masses m and 2m are connected by a light string going over a pulley (disc) of mass 30m with radius r = 0.1 m. The pulley is mounted in a vertical plane and it is free to rotate about its axis. The 2m mass is released from rest and its speed when it has descended through a height of 3.6 m is m/s. (Assume string does not slip and g = 10 m/s2)
