Answer:
If point O is centroid of triangle ABC, the distance OA = (2/3) of height of triangle from base BC
Hence OA = (2/3) ×(√3/2) × (2R) = (2/3)(√3R)
where R is radius of sphere
By parallel-axis theorem, Moment of inertia I of each sphere about an axis passing through O is given by,
I= (2/5)MR2 + (4/3)MR2
where M is mass of sphere.
Hence Moment of inertia Io of all three sphers about an axis passing through O is given by,
Io = 3 × [ (2/5)MR2 + (4/3)MR2 ] = (26/5) MR2 ......................(1)
If Axis of rotation is passing through A, then moment of inertia IA of whole system is given by
IA = (2/5)MR2 + [ (2/5)MR2 + 4MR2 ] + [ (2/5)MR2 + 4MR2 ] = (46/5) MR2 .......................(2)
Using eqn.(1) and eqn.(2), ( Io / IA ) = 26/46 = 13/23
