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. \(\dfrac{3\pi}{2}\text{s}\) 2. \(2\pi~\text{s}\)
3. \(\dfrac{\pi}{2}\text{s}\) 4. \(\pi~\text{s}\)
