$A$ thin circular ring of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is rotating in a horizontal plane with angular velocity $\omega$ about an axis passing through its center and perpendicular to the plane. If another ring of the same size but mass $\frac{M}{4}$ is placed coaxially on the first ring,then the new angular velocity of the system is:

  • A
    $\frac{5}{4}\omega$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{3}\omega$
  • C
    $\frac{4}{5}\omega$
  • D
    $\frac{3}{2}\omega$

$(a)$ $A$ child stands at the centre of a turntable with his two arms outstretched. The turntable is set rotating with an angular speed of $40\; rev/min$. How much is the angular speed of the child if he folds his hands back and thereby reduces his moment of inertia to $2/5$ times the initial value? Assume that the turntable rotates without friction.
$(b)$ Show that the child's new kinetic energy of rotation is more than the initial kinetic energy of rotation. How do you account for this increase in kinetic energy?

$A$ child with mass $m$ is standing at the edge of a disc with moment of inertia $I$,radius $R$,and initial angular velocity $\omega$. See the figure given below. The child jumps off the edge of the disc with tangential velocity $v$ with respect to the ground. The new angular velocity of the disc is
