A thin circular ring of mass m and radius R is rotating about its axis perpendicular to the plane of the ring with a constant angular velocity ω. Two point particles each of mass M are attached gently to the opposite ends of a diameter of the ring. The ring now rotates, with an angular velocity ω2. Then, the ratio mM is
