    If the earth shrinks such that its mass does not change but radius decreases to one quarter of its original value then one complete day will take

    A)  96 h                                      

    B)  48 h

    C)  6 h                                        

    D)  1.5 h

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     We know that angular momentum of spin \[\text{=}\,\text{I }\!\!\omega\!\!\text{ }\] By the conservation of angular momentum \[\frac{2}{5}M{{R}^{2}}.\frac{2\pi }{T}=\frac{2}{5}M{{\left( \frac{R}{4} \right)}^{2}}.\frac{2\pi }{T}\]                 \[T=\frac{T}{16}=\frac{24}{16}=1.5h\]
