$A$ boy stands at the center of a horizontal platform with $2 \ kg$ masses in each hand,held close to his body. The platform rotates about a vertical axis passing through its center at a speed of $2 \ rev/s$. The moment of inertia of the system is $1 \ kg \cdot m^2$. When the boy extends his arms fully with the masses,the moment of inertia becomes $2 \ kg \cdot m^2$. In the second state,the kinetic energy of the system compared to the first state will be:

$A$ metre stick is pivoted about its centre. $A$ piece of wax of mass $20 \,g$ travelling horizontally and perpendicular to it at $5 \,m/s$ strikes and adheres to one end of the stick so that the stick starts to rotate in a horizontal circle. Given the moment of inertia of the stick and wax about the pivot is $0.02 \,kg \cdot m^2$,the initial angular velocity of the stick is ........... $rad/s$.

$A$ circular stage is free to rotate about a vertical axis passing through its centre. $A$ tortoise is sitting at the corner of the stage. The stage is provided with an initial angular velocity $\omega_0$. If the tortoise starts moving along one chord at a constant speed with respect to the stage,then how does the angular velocity of the stage $\omega(t)$ vary with time $t$?
