$A$ 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
    $5/4 \omega$
  • B
    $2/3 \omega$
  • C
    $4/5 \omega$
  • D
    $3/2 \omega$

An equilateral triangle $ABC$ formed from a uniform wire has two small identical beads initially located at $A$. The triangle is set rotating about the vertical axis $AO$. Then the beads are released from rest simultaneously and allowed to slide down,one along $AB$ and the other along $AC$ as shown. Neglecting frictional effects,the quantities that are conserved as the beads slide down,are

$A$ person standing on a rotating table holds weights in their outstretched hands and is rotating. They suddenly pull their hands in close to their body. Which statement is true?

The angular momentum of a system of particles is conserved:

The angular velocity of a body changes from $\omega_1$ to $\omega_2$ without the application of any external torque,but this change occurs due to a change in its moment of inertia. The ratio of the radii of gyration in the two cases will be:
