A thin ring of mass 2 m and radius R is pivoted at P on a frictionless table, as shown in figure. A bug of mass m. runs along the ring with speed v with respect to the ring. The bug starts from the pivot with the ring at rest. When the bug reaches the diametrically opposite point on the ring (point X), it is moving with velocity 'v' with respect to the table. The value of vv' is

A boy stands over the centre of a horizontal platform which is rotating freely with a speed of 2 revolutions/s about a vertical axis through the centre of the platform and straight up through the boy. He holds 2 kg masses in each of his hands close to his body. The combined moment of inertia of the system is 1 kg-m2, The boy now stretches his arms so as to hold the masses far from his body. In this situation the moment of inertia of the system increases to 2 kg-m2. The kinetic energy of the system in the latter case as compared with that in the previous case will-
