  • question_answer
    A circular disc X of radius R is made from an iron plate of thickness t and another disc Y of radius 4R is made from an iron plate of thickness t/4. Then, the relation between the moment of inertia \[{{I}_{X}}\] and \[{{I}_{Y}}\] is [AIEEE 2003]

    A)               \[{{l}_{Y}}=32\,{{l}_{X}}\]              

    B)        \[{{l}_{Y}}=16\,{{l}_{X}}\]

    C)   \[{{l}_{Y}}=\,{{l}_{X}}\]

    D)                    \[{{l}_{Y}}=\,64{{l}_{X}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] Mass of disc (X), \[{{m}_{x}}=\pi {{R}^{2}}t\rho \]
                \[(m=v\rho =At\rho =\pi {{R}^{2}}-\rho )\]
                where, \[\rho =\] density of material of disc
                \[\therefore \]      \[{{l}_{x}}=\frac{1}{2}{{m}_{x}}\,{{R}^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}\pi {{R}^{2}}t\rho {{R}^{2}}\]
                            \[{{l}_{x}}=\frac{1}{2}\pi \rho t{{R}^{4}}\]                ... (i)
                Mass of disc (Y)
                            \[{{m}_{Y}}=\pi {{(4R)}^{2}}\frac{t}{4}\rho =4\pi {{R}^{2}}t\rho \]
                and         \[{{l}_{Y}}=\frac{1}{2}{{m}_{Y}}{{(4R)}^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}4{{R}^{2}}t\rho .\,16{{R}^{2}}\]
                \[\Rightarrow \]   \[{{l}_{Y}}\,=32\,\pi t\rho {{R}^{4}}\]             ... (ii)
                \[\therefore \]      \[\frac{{{l}_{Y}}}{{{l}_{X}}}=\frac{32\,\pi t\rho {{R}^{4}}}{\frac{1}{2}\pi \rho t{{R}^{4}}}=64\]
                \[\therefore \]      \[{{l}_{Y}}\,=64\,{{l}_{X}}\]
