$A$ particle is moving in a circular path. Which of the following statements is true?

$A$ thin uniform circular disc of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is rotating with angular velocity $\omega$ in a horizontal plane about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its plane. Another disc of the same radius but of mass $\frac{M}{3}$ is placed gently on the first disc co-axially. The new angular velocity will be:

$A$ mass of $2 \ kg$ is moving in a circular path of radius $0.8 \ m$ with an angular velocity of $44 \ rad/s$. If the radius of the path becomes $1 \ m$,the new angular velocity will be ........ $rad/s$.

$A$ body changes its angular speed from $\omega_1$ to $\omega_2$ without any external torque applied. This change is due to a change in its moment of inertia. What is the ratio of the radii of gyration in the two cases?

$A$ uniform circular disc of mass $50 \ kg$ and radius $0.4 \ m$ is rotating with an angular velocity of $10 \ rad \ s^{-1}$ about its own axis,which is vertical. Two uniform circular rings,each of mass $6.25 \ kg$ and radius $0.2 \ m$,are gently placed symmetrically on the disc in such a manner that they are touching each other along the axis of the disc and are horizontal. Assume that the friction is large enough such that the rings are at rest relative to the disc and the system rotates about the original axis. The new angular velocity (in $rad \ s^{-1}$) of the system is:
