$A$ small mass attached to a string rotates on a frictionless table top as shown. If the tension in the string is increased by pulling the string,causing the radius of the circular motion to decrease by a factor of $2$,the kinetic energy of the mass will

If the Earth were to suddenly contract to $\frac{1}{n}$ th of its present radius without any change in its mass,the duration of the new day will be nearly

$A$ metre stick is pivoted about its centre. $A$ piece of wax of mass $20 \,g$ travelling horizontally and perpendicular to it at $5 \,m/s$ strikes and adheres to one end of the stick so that the stick starts to rotate in a horizontal circle. Given the moment of inertia of the stick and wax about the pivot is $0.02 \,kg \cdot m^2$,the initial angular velocity of the stick is ........... $rad/s$.

$A$ boy stands with his hands folded at the center of a platform rotating about its central axis. The kinetic energy of the system is $K$. The boy now stretches his hands out, which doubles the moment of inertia of the system. The kinetic energy of the system will become

$A$ boy stands at the center of a horizontal platform with $2 \ kg$ masses in each hand,held close to his body. The platform rotates about a vertical axis passing through its center at a speed of $2 \ rev/s$. The moment of inertia of the system is $1 \ kg \cdot m^2$. When the boy extends his arms fully with the masses,the moment of inertia becomes $2 \ kg \cdot m^2$. In the second state,the kinetic energy of the system compared to the first state will be:

Two discs of same moment of inertia $I$ are rotating about their central axes perpendicular to their planes with angular velocities $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$. They are brought into contact face to face,such that their axes of rotation coincide. The expression for the loss of energy during this process is:
