A stationary platform P which can rotate freely about a vertical axis (figure) supports a motor M and a balance weight N. The moment of inertia of the platform with the motor and the balance weight relative to this axis is equal to I. A light frame is fixed to the motor's shaft with a uniform sphere A rotating freely with an angular velocity omega_0 about a shaft BB^' coinciding with the axis OO^' . The moment of inertia of the sphere relative to the rotation axis is equal to I_0 . Find (a) the work performed by the motor in turning the shaft BB^' through 90^@ , through 180^@ , (b) the moment of external forces which maintains the axis of the arrangement in the vertical position after the motor turns the shaft BB^' through 90^@ .
