The ratio of radius of gyration of a solid sphere of mass and radius about its own axis to the radius of gyration of the thin hollow sphere of same mass and radius about its axis is
For a solid sphere, moment of inertia , so . For a hollow sphere, , so . The ratio . Note: The provided answer key indicates (1) which is 3:5, likely implying the ratio of squares of radii of gyration or a specific convention.
