$A$ disc of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is moving with an angular velocity $\omega$ as shown in the figure. Find the angular momentum of the disc about the reference point $O$.

$A$ circular platform rotates in a horizontal plane about a vertical axis passing through its center. $A$ tortoise sits on the edge of the platform. The platform is given an initial angular velocity $\omega_0$. The tortoise now moves along a chord of the platform with a constant velocity (relative to the platform). How does the angular velocity $\omega(t)$ of the platform change with time $t$?

$A$ 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:
