Consider a flywheel whose mass $$M$$ is distributed almost equally between a heavy, ring-like rim of radius $$R$$ and a concentric disk-like feature of radius $$R/2$$. Other parts of the flywheel, such as spokes, etc, have negligible mass. The best approximation for $$\alpha ,$$ if the moment of inertia of the flywheel about its axis of rotation is expressed as $$\,\alpha M{R^2},\,\,$$ is ________.
