$A$ force $\vec F = \alpha \hat i + 3\hat j + 6\hat k$ is acting at a point $\vec r = 2\hat i - 6\hat j - 12\hat k$. The value of $\alpha$ for which angular momentum about the origin is conserved 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 uniform rod of mass $M$ and length $L$ is rotating about a perpendicular axis passing through its centre with a constant angular velocity $\omega$. Two objects,each of mass $\frac{M}{3}$,are attached gently to the two ends of the rod. The rod will now rotate with an angular velocity of

$A$ man stands on a rotating platform with his arms stretched horizontally,holding a $5\; kg$ weight in each hand. The angular speed of the platform is $30$ revolutions per minute. The man then brings his arms close to his body,with the distance of each weight from the axis changing from $90\; cm$ to $20\; cm$. The moment of inertia of the man together with the platform may be taken to be constant and equal to $7.6\; kg\; m^2$.
$(a)$ What is his new angular speed? (Neglect friction.)
$(b)$ Is kinetic energy conserved in the process? If not,from where does the change come about?

$A$ uniform disc of mass $100 \ kg$ and radius $2 \ m$ is rotating at $1 \ rad/s$ about a perpendicular axis passing through its centre. $A$ boy of mass $60 \ kg$ standing at the centre of the disc suddenly jumps to a point which is $1 \ m$ from the centre of the disc. The final angular velocity of the boy (in $rad/s$) is

$A$ ring of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is rotating with angular speed $\omega$ about a fixed vertical axis passing through its centre $O$ with two point masses each of mass $\frac{M}{8}$ at rest at $O$. These masses can move radially outwards along two massless rods fixed on the ring as shown in the figure. At some instant,the angular speed of the system is $\frac{8}{9} \omega$ and one of the masses is at a distance of $\frac{3}{5} R$ from $O$. At this instant,the distance of the other mass from $O$ is
