A uniform thin rod is bent in the form of closed loop `ABCDEFA` as shown in the figure. The ratio of moment of inertia of the loop about `x`-axis to that about `y`-axis is A. `gt1`B. `lt1`C. `=1`D. `1//2`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Moment of inertia of semicirular portions about `x` and `y` axes are same. But moment of inertia of straight portions about `x`-axis is zero.
`:. I_(x)ltI_(y)` or `(I_(x))/(I_(y))lt1`
