Solution

The correct option is A Aluminium at interior and iron surrounding it
Moment of inertia is depends on distribution of mass about axis of rotation.Density of iron is more than that of aluminium, therefore for moment of inertia to be maximum, the iron should be far away from the axis. Thus, aluminium should be at interior and iron surrounds it.
