Answer:

option E

Explanation:

given,

I is moment of inertia about an axis tangent to its surface.

moment of inertia about the center of mass

I_{CM} = \dfrac{2}{5}mR^2.....(1)

now, moment of inertia about tangent

I= \dfrac{2}{5}mR^2 + mR^2

I= \dfrac{7}{5}mR^2...........(2)

dividing equation (1)/(2)

\dfrac{I_{CM}}{I}= \dfrac{\dfrac{2}{5}mR^2}{\dfrac{7}{5}mR^2}

\dfrac{I_{CM}}{I}=\dfrac{2}{7}

I_{CM}=\dfrac{2}{7}I

the correct answer is option E

Two point charges exert a 5.00 N force on each other. What will the force become if the distance between them is increased by a
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

force becomes one - ninth

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law in electrostatics, two charges can exert a force of attraction or repulsion on each other which is directly proportional to the product of two charges and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them.

Here both the charges remains same but the distance is variable.

So, we can say that

F \alpha \frac{1}{d^{2}}    .... (1)

Where d be the distance between the tow charges

As the distance between two charges increases by factor of three, let the new force be F'.

F' \alpha \frac{1}{9d^{2}}   .... (2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1), we get

\frac{F'}{F}=\frac{d^{2}}{9d^{2}}

F'=\frac{F}{9}

Thus, the force becomes one - ninth times the initial force.
