Two men each of mass m stand on the rim ...

Two men each of mass m stand on the rim of a horizontal circular disc, diametrically opposite to each other. The disc has a mass M and is free to rotate about a vertical axis passing through its centre of mass. Each mass start simultaneously along the rim clockwise and reaches their original starting positions on the disc. The angle turned through by disc with respect to the ground (in radian) is

Two men, each of mass 75 kg , stand on the rim of a horizontal large disc, diametrically opposite to each other. The disc has a mass 450 kg and is free to rotate about its axis. Each man simultaneouslt start along the rim clockwise with the same speed and reaches their original starting points on the disc. Find the angle turned through by the disc with respect to the ground.

A uniform disc of mass M and radius R is rotating about a horizontal axis passing through its centre with angular velocity omega . A piece of mass m breaks from the disc and flies off vertically upwards. The angular speed of the disc will be

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.
