Two discs are rotating about their respective axes, which are normal to the discs and pass through their centres. Disc \(D_1\) has a \(2\) kg mass and \(0.2\) m radius and an initial angular velocity of \(50~\text{rad} ~\text{s}^{-1}.\) Disc \(D_2\) has a \(4\) kg mass, \(0.1\) m radius and an initial angular velocity of \(200~\text{rad} ~\text{s}^{-1}.\) The two discs are brought into contact face to face, with their axes of rotation coincident. The final angular velocity (in \(\text{rad} ~\text{s}^{-1}\)) of the combined system is:
1. \(60\)
2. \(100\)
3. \(120\)
4. \(40\)

Given the following statements:

(a) The centre of gravity (C.G.) of a body is the point at which the weight of the body acts.
(b) If the earth is assumed to have an infinitely large radius, the centre of mass coincides with the centre of gravity.
(c) To evaluate the gravitational field intensity due to any body at an external point, the entire mass of the body can be considered to be concentrated at its C.G.
(d) The radius of gyration of any body rotating about an axis is the length of the perpendicular dropped from the C.G. of the body to the axis.

A circular platform is mounted on a frictionless vertical axle. Its radius \(R = 2~\text{m}\) and its moment of inertia about the axle is \(200~\text{kg m}^2\). It is initially at rest. A \(50~\text{kg}\) man stands on the edge of the platform and begins to walk along the edge at the speed of \(1~\text{ms}^{-1}\) relative to the ground. The time taken by man to complete one revolution is:
1. \(\frac{3\pi}{2}\text{s}\)
2. \(2\pi~\text{s}\)
3. \(\frac{\pi}{2}\text{s}\)
