A horizontal disc rotating about a vertical axis makes 100 revolutions per minute. A small piece of wax of mass 10 g falls vertically on the disc and adheres to it at a distance of 9 cm from the axis. If the number of revolutions per minute is there by reduced to 90, calculate the moment of inertia of the disc.

A man stands on a rotating platform, with his arms stretched horizontally holding a 5 kg weight in each hand. The angular speed of the platform is 30 revolutions per minute. The man then brings his arms close to his body with the distance of each weight from the axis changing from 90cm to 20cm. The moment of inertia of the man together with the platform may be taken to be constant and equal to 7.6 kg m^2 :- Is kinetic energy conserved in the process? If not, from where does the change come about?
