A circular platform is mounted on a frictionless vertical axle. Its radius is R = 2m and its moment of inertia about the axle is 200 kg m2. Initially, it is at rest. A 50 kg man stands on the edge of the platform and begins to walk along the edge at a speed of 1 m s–1 relative to the ground. The time taken by the man to complete one revolution is:
1. π sec                 
2. 3π2sec
3. 2π sec               
4. π2sec

Two discs are rotating about their axes, normal to the discs and passing through the centres of the discs. Disc D1 has a 2 kg mass, 0.2 m radius, and an initial angular velocity of 50 rad s-1. Disc D2 has 4 kg mass, 0.1 m radius, and initial angular velocity of 200 rad s-1. The two discs are brought in contact face to face, with their axes of rotation coincident. The final angular velocity (in rad.s-1) of the system will be:

1. 60

2. 100

3. 120

4. 40
