Relation between Linear and Angular Speed

A disc is rot...

Question

A disc is rotating with angular speed $ω$ . If a child sits on it, what is conserved?

Open in App

Solution

The weight of the child acts downwards hence external torque is zero. If external torque is zero, angular momentum remains conserved.
