Answer:

The ratio of moment of inertia of larger sphere to that of smaller sphere = 4

Explanation:

The moment of inertia of solid sphere is given by I = 2/5MR² where M = mass of sphere and R = radius of sphere.

Radius of smaller sphere = D/2

Radius of larger sphere = 2D/2 = D.

Moment of inertia of smaller sphere I₁ = 2/5M × D²/4 = MD²/10

Moment of inertia of larger sphere I₂ = 2/5M × D² = 2MD²/5

The ratio of moment of inertia of larger sphere to that of smaller sphere = I₂/I₁ = 2MD²/5 ÷ MD²/10 = 10 × 2/5 = 4
