    The moment of inertia of a uniform cylinder of length\[\ell \]and radius R about its perpendicular bisector is I. What is the ratio \[\ell /R\]such that the moment of inertia is minimum?    JEE Main Solved Paper-2017

    A)  1                                            

    B)  \[\frac{3}{\sqrt{2}}\]

    C)  \[\sqrt{\frac{3}{\sqrt{2}}}\]                       

    D)  \[\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     \[I=\frac{m\ell }{12}+\frac{m{{R}^{2}}}{4}\] or            \[I=\frac{m}{4}\left( \frac{{{\ell }^{2}}}{3}+{{R}^{2}} \right)\]                       ?.. Also       \[m=\pi {{R}^{2}}\ell \rho \] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{R}^{2}}=\frac{m}{\pi \ell \rho }\]Put in equation \[I=\frac{m}{4}\left( \frac{{{\ell }^{2}}}{3}+\frac{m}{\rho \ell \rho } \right)\] For maxima & minima \[\frac{dI}{d\ell }=\frac{m}{4}\left( \frac{2\ell }{3}-\frac{m}{\pi {{\ell }^{2}}\rho } \right)=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{2\ell }{3}=\frac{m}{\pi {{\ell }^{2}}\rho }\Rightarrow \frac{2\ell }{3}=\frac{\pi {{R}^{2}}\ell \rho }{\pi {{\ell }^{2}}\rho }\] Or           \[\frac{2\ell }{3}=\frac{{{R}^{2}}}{\ell }\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{{{\ell }^{2}}}{{{R}^{2}}}=\frac{3}{2}\] \[\frac{{{\ell }^{2}}}{R}=\sqrt{\frac{3}{2}}\]
