[UPSC CSE 2010] Rigid Body Dynamics (Q221, 10M)
A uniform solid sphere of radius R having moment of inertia I about its diameter is melted to form a uniform disc of thickness t and radius r. The moment of inertia of the disc about an axis passing through its edge and perpendicular to the plane is also equal to I. Show that the radius r of the disc is given by r=\dfrac{2R}{\sqrt{15}}.
