Two wheels have the same mass and radius. Wheel X has most of its mass near the axle; wheel Y has most of its mass near the rim.
X has a larger moment of inertia than Y.
They have the same moment of inertia because mass and radius are the same.
Y has a larger moment of inertia than X.
Their moments of inertia are zero if they rotate steadily.
A skater rotates with arms extended. The skater then pulls the arms in so that the moment of inertia decreases by a factor of 2. No external torque acts.
It decreases by a factor of .
