A circular platform is mounted on a frictionless vertical axle. Its radius is R = 2m and its moment of inertia about the axle is 200 kg m². Initially, it is at rest. A 50 kg man stands on the edge of the platform and begins to walk along the edge at a speed of 1 m s^–1 relative to the ground. The time taken by the man to complete one revolution is:
1. $\mathrm{\pi } \sec$                 
2. $\frac{3\mathrm{\pi }}{2}\sec$
3. $2\mathrm{\pi } \sec$
