Problem

Three uniform cylinders of equal mass mm and length ℓ\ell spin about their central axes with the same non-zero angular momentum magnitude LL. Cylinder A is solid with radius RR. Cylinder B is a thin-walled hollow tube of the same radius RR. Cylinder C is a solid cylinder of radius 12R\tfrac{1}{2}R. Rank the cylinders’ angular speeds ω\omega from greatest to least and give a short justification.
