$A$ bullet of mass $10 \; g$ and speed $500 \; m/s$ is fired into a door and gets embedded exactly at the centre of the door. The door is $1.0 \; m$ wide and weighs $12 \; kg$. It is hinged at one end and rotates about a vertical axis practically without friction. Find the angular speed of the door just after the bullet embeds into it.

$A$ circular disc has a moment of inertia $I_2$ about an axis passing through its center and perpendicular to its plane. Another disc with a moment of inertia $I_1$ is placed on it. If the system rotates about the same axis with an initial angular velocity $\omega$,what will be the final angular velocity of the combined system?

$A$ particle of mass $m$ moves with a velocity $v_0$ in a circle of radius $R_0$ on a smooth horizontal plane. The mass is tied to a string passing through a hole in the smooth plane as shown in the figure. The tension in the string is gradually increased,and finally,the mass $m$ moves in a circle of radius $\frac{R_0}{2}$. What is the ratio of the final kinetic energy to the initial kinetic energy?

$A$ man stands on a rotating platform with his arms stretched horizontally,holding a $5\; kg$ weight in each hand. The angular speed of the platform is $30$ revolutions per minute. The man then brings his arms close to his body,with the distance of each weight from the axis changing from $90\; cm$ to $20\; cm$. The moment of inertia of the man together with the platform may be taken to be constant and equal to $7.6\; kg\; m^2$.
$(a)$ What is his new angular speed? (Neglect friction.)
$(b)$ Is kinetic energy conserved in the process? If not,from where does the change come about?

$A$ thin uniform circular disc of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is rotating in a horizontal plane about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its plane with an angular velocity $\omega$. Another disc of same dimension but of mass $M/4$ is placed gently on the first disc coaxially. The angular velocity of the system now is
