An ant is sitting at the edge of a rotating disc. If the ant reaches the other end, after moving along the diameter, the angular velocity of the disc will

If the radius of the earth becomes $x$ times its present value, the new period of rotation in hours is (in $x^2$)

$A$ rigid body of mass $2 \ kg$ is moving in a circular path of radius $0.8 \ m$ with an angular velocity of $44 \ rad \ s^{-1}$. If the radius of the circular path becomes $1 \ m$,the new angular velocity of the body will be ........ $rad \ s^{-1}$.

$A$ solid cylinder of mass $2 \ kg$ and radius $0.2 \ m$ is rotating with an angular velocity of $3 \ rad/s$. $A$ particle of mass $0.5 \ kg$ moving with a velocity of $5 \ m/s$ strikes its periphery tangentially and sticks to it. Find the angular velocity of the system after the collision in $rad/s$.

$(a)$ $A$ 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?

When a person dancing on ice pulls their arms inward,they start spinning faster. This is due to:
