A circular platform is mounted on the frictionless vertical axle. Its radius R =2 m and its moment of inertia about the axle is 200 kg m2. It is initially at rest. A 50 kg man stands on the edge of the platform and begins to walk along the edge at the speed of 1 ms-1 relative to the ground. Time taken by the man to complete one revolution is
