Answer» LET the MASS of the removed ARC be m. So the moment of inertia of the remaining portion should be, $\quad$ $\mapsto\sf{I=MR^2-mR^2=k\cdot MR^2}$ $\quad$ The length of the arc should be, $\quad$ $\mapsto\sf{l=R\cdot\dfrac {\pi}{2}}$ $\quad$ since the arc is corresponding to a 90° or a (π/2) radian sector. $\quad$ Since the ring is assumed to be uniform, the LINEAR density is the same EVERYWHERE. Thus, $\quad$ $\mapsto\sf{\dfrac {M}{2\pi R}=\dfrac{m}{\left (\dfrac {R\pi}{2}\right)}}\\\\\\\mapsto\sf{m=\dfrac {M}{4}}$ $\quad$ Then, $\quad$ $\mapsto\sf{MR^2-\left (\dfrac {M}{4}\right)R^2}=k\cdot MR^2\\\\\\\mapsto\sf{\dfrac {3}{4}MR^2=k\cdot MR^2}$ $\quad$ Therefore, $\quad$ $\mapsto\sf{\underline {\underline {k=\dfrac {3}{4}}}}$

LET the MASS of the removed ARC be m. So the moment of inertia of the remaining portion should be,

$\quad$

$\mapsto\sf{I=MR^2-mR^2=k\cdot MR^2}$

$\quad$

The length of the arc should be,

$\quad$

$\mapsto\sf{l=R\cdot\dfrac {\pi}{2}}$

$\quad$

since the arc is corresponding to a 90° or a (π/2) radian sector.

$\quad$

Since the ring is assumed to be uniform, the LINEAR density is the same EVERYWHERE. Thus,

$\quad$

$\mapsto\sf{\dfrac {M}{2\pi R}=\dfrac{m}{\left (\dfrac {R\pi}{2}\right)}}\\\\\\\mapsto\sf{m=\dfrac {M}{4}}$

$\quad$

Then,

$\quad$

$\mapsto\sf{MR^2-\left (\dfrac {M}{4}\right)R^2}=k\cdot MR^2\\\\\\\mapsto\sf{\dfrac {3}{4}MR^2=k\cdot MR^2}$

$\quad$

Therefore,

$\quad$

$\mapsto\sf{\underline {\underline {k=\dfrac {3}{4}}}}$
