$A$ mouse of mass $m$ jumps on the outside edge of a rotating ceiling fan of moment of inertia $I$ and radius $R$. The fractional loss of angular velocity of the fan as a result is

$A$ disc of moment of inertia $I_1$ is rotating in a horizontal plane about an axis passing through its center and perpendicular to its plane with a constant angular speed $\omega_1$. Another disc of moment of inertia $I_2$ having zero angular speed is placed coaxially on the rotating disc. Now,both the discs are rotating with a constant angular speed $\omega_2$. The energy lost by the initial rotating disc is

$A$ small object is attached to a light string which passes through a hollow tube. The tube is held by one hand and the string by the other. The object is set into rotation in a circle of radius $r_1$. The string is then pulled down,shortening the radius of the circle to $r_2$. The ratio of the new kinetic energy to the original kinetic energy is

$A$ thin circular ring of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is rotating about a transverse axis passing through its centre with constant angular velocity $\omega$. Two objects each of mass $m$ are attached gently to the opposite ends of a diameter of the ring. What is the new angular velocity?

$A$ circular disk of moment of inertia $I_t$ is rotating in a horizontal plane,about its symmetry axis,with a constant angular speed $\omega_i$. Another disk of moment of inertia $I_b$ is dropped coaxially onto the rotating disk. Initially,the second disk has zero angular speed. Eventually,both the disks rotate with a constant angular speed $\omega_f$. The energy lost by the initially rotating disk to friction is

Due to global warming, if the ice in the polar region melts and some of this water flows to the equatorial region, then
