A man stands holding a weight in each hand and with his arms outstretched on a frictionless platform which is rotating at a speed of 1 revolution per sec. In ths position the total rotational intertia of the man, the weights and the platform is `6kgm^(2)`. If by drawing in his arms, the man decreases the rotational inertia of the system by `2kg m^(2)`, calcualte the resulting speed of the platform and the increase in kinetic energy. How do you account for the increase of kinetic energy?

2 rps

B

4 rps

C

3 rps

D
