Correct answer: D

  1. Initial moment of inertia of the ring

A thin circular ring of mass mmm and radius RRR rotating about its central axis has

Ii=mR2I_i = mR^2Ii​=mR2

  1. Initial angular momentum

Since the ring is rotating with angular velocity ω\omegaω, its initial angular momentum is

Li=Iiω=mR2ωL_i = I_i\omega = mR^2\omegaLi​=Ii​ω=mR2ω

  1. Final moment of inertia after attaching two masses

Two particles, each of mass MMM, are attached at opposite ends of a diameter. Each particle is at distance RRR from the axis.

Moment of inertia of the two particles:

Iparticles=MR2+MR2=2MR2I_{\text{particles}} = MR^2 + MR^2 = 2MR^2Iparticles​=MR2+MR2=2MR2

So the total final moment of inertia is

If=mR2+2MR2=(m+2M)R2I_f = mR^2 + 2MR^2 = (m+2M)R^2If​=mR2+2MR2=(m+2M)R2

  1. Use conservation of angular momentum

Since the masses are attached gently and no external torque acts about the axis,

Li=LfL_i = L_fLi​=Lf​

So,

mR2ω=(m+2M)R2ω′mR^2\omega = (m+2M)R^2\omega'mR2ω=(m+2M)R2ω′

Cancel R2R^2R2:

mω=(m+2M)ω′m\omega = (m+2M)\omega'mω=(m+2M)ω′

Hence,

ω′=mωm+2M\omega' = \frac{m\omega}{m+2M}ω′=m+2Mmω​

  1. Match with the options

This corresponds to

ω′=ωmm+2M\boxed{\omega' = \frac{\omega m}{m+2M}}ω′=m+2Mωm​​

So the correct option is D.
