$A$ person is rotating on a rotating table with an angular speed of $\omega$. He holds two identical masses in his outstretched hands. Without moving his hands,he simply drops the masses. How will his angular velocity change?

  • A
    It will be less than $\omega$
  • B
    It will be greater than $\omega$
  • C
    It will remain equal to $\omega$
  • D
    Whether it is less than,greater than,or equal to $\omega$ depends on the amount of mass
