$A$ man standing on a turn-table is rotating at a certain angular frequency with his arms outstretched. He suddenly folds his arms. If his moment of inertia with folded arms is $75 \%$ of that with outstretched arms,then his rotational kinetic energy will

Suppose all the people in the world line up at the equator and all start running at speed $v_{rel}$ relative to the surface of the Earth along the equatorial circle. The initial angular velocity of the Earth is $\omega_0$. Let the moment of inertia of the Earth be $I_E$,the moment of inertia of all people be $I_P$,and the radius of the Earth be $R$.

$A$ thin and circular disc of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is rotating in a horizontal plane about its geometrical axis with an angular velocity $\omega$. If another disc of same dimensions but of mass $M/4$ is placed gently on the first disc coaxially,then the new angular velocity of the system is:

$A$ space station consists of two living modules attached to a central hub on opposite sides by long corridors of equal length $L$. Each living module contains $N$ astronauts of equal mass $m$. The mass of the space station structure is negligible compared to the mass of the astronauts,and the size of the central hub and living modules is negligible compared to the length of the corridors. Initially,the space station is rotating with angular velocity $\omega$ such that the astronauts feel an artificial gravitational field of strength $g = \omega^2 L$. Two astronauts,one from each module,move into the central hub. The remaining astronauts now feel an artificial gravitational field of strength $g'$. What is the ratio $g'/g$ in terms of $N$?
