[You may begin with : When Duke senior and his followers were taking meal I rushed ..........] The Duke senior and his followers were sitting down to a meal one day when Orlando rushed out from among the trees , his sword in his hand . 'Stop , and eat no more !' he cried . The Duke and his friends asked him what he wanted. 'Food' said Orlando. 'I am almost dying of hunger.' They asked him to sit down and eat , but he would not do so . He told them that his old servant was in the wood, dying of hunger . 'I will not eat a bite untill he has been fed' , Orlando said. So the good Duke and his followers helped him to bring Adam to their hiding place , and Orlando and the old man were fed and taken care of . When the Duke learned that Orlando was a son of his old friend Sir Rowland de Boys , he welcomed him gladly to his forest court. Orlando lived happily with the Duke and his friends , but he had not forgotton the lovely Rosalind. She was always in his thoughts and every day he wrote poetry about her , pining it on the trees in the forest . 'These trees shall be my books ,'he said,' so that everyone who looks in the forest will be able to read how sweet and good Rosalind is'. Rosalind and Celia found some the these poems pinned on the trees. At first they were puzzled, wondering who could have written them, but one day Celia came in from a walk with the news that she had seen Orlando sleeping under a tree , and she and Rosalind guessed that he must be the poet .

    A boy stands over the centre of a horizontal platform which is rotating freely with a speed of 2 "revolutions"//s about a vertical axis through the centre of the platform and straight up through the boy. He holds 2 kg masses in each of his hands close to his body. The combined moment of inertia of the system is 1 kg xx metre^(2) . The boy now stretches his arms so as to hold the masses far from his body. In this situation, the moment of inertia of the system increases to 2 kgxxmetre^(2) , The kinetic energy of the system in the latter case as compared with that in the previous case will
