A man of mass `m` stands on a horizontal platform in the shape of a disc of mass `m` and radius `R`, pivoted on a vertical axis thorugh its centre about which it can freely rotate. The man starts to move aroung the centre of the disc in a circle of radius `r` with a velocity `v` relative to the disc. Calculate the angular velocity of the disc.

A man of mass m_1 stands on the edge of a horizontal uniform disc of mass m_2 and radius R which is capable of rotating freely about a stationary vertical axis passing through its centre. At a certain moment the man starts moving along the edge of the disc, he shifts over an angle varphi^' relative to the disc and then stops. In the process of motion the velocity of the man varies with time as v^'(t) . Assuming the dimensions of the man to be negligible, find: (a) the angle through which the disc had turned by the moment the man stopped, (b) the force moment (relative to the rotation axis) with which the man acted on the disc in the process of motion.
