Given:

Initial inertia is I , time period of rotation doubles.

To find:

New moment of inertia ?

Calculation:

 \therefore \: T = \dfrac{2\pi r}{v}=\dfrac{2\pi}{ \omega}

\implies T \propto \dfrac{1}{\omega}

Now, new time period is 2T .

 \implies \:  \dfrac{2T}{T}  =  \dfrac{ \omega}{  \omega_{2}}

 \implies \:  \omega_{2}  =  </p><p>\dfrac{ \omega}{2}

Now, since there is no external torque, angular momentum will be conserved.

\therefore I\omega=constant

 \implies\:  I_{1} \omega_{1} =I_{2} \omega_{2}

 \implies \:  I\omega =I_{2}  (\dfrac{\omega}{2})

 \implies \: I_{2}   =2 I

So, new moment of inertia is 2I

The new moment of inertia of Earth is 2I

Explanation:

Given:

The time period of Earth gets doubled without any external torque

The initial moment of Inertia of Earth is I

To find out:

The new moment of inertia of Earth

Solution:

We know that

If time period if T then the angular velocity

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}

Let the new moment of inertia be I'

Given that time period gets doubled

Thus, new time period = 2T

new angular velocity

\omega'=\frac{2\pi}{2T}

Since there is no external torque

Therefore, the angular momentum will be conserved

From the conservation of anular momentum

I\omega=I'\omega'

\implies I\times\frac{2\pi}{T}=I'\times\frac{2\pi}{2T}

\implies I'=2I

Hope this answer is helpful.
