A boy is standing on a platform which is free to rotate about its axis. The boy holds an open umbrella in his hand. The axis of the umbrella coincides with that of the platform. The moment of inertia of "the platform plus the boy system" is 3.0 x 10 -3 k g-m 2 and that of the umbrella is 2.0 x 10 -3 k g-m 2. The boy starts spinning the umbrella about the axis at an angular speed of 2.0 rev/s with respect to himself. Find the angular velocity imparted to the platform.
