Two different liquids of same mass are kept in two identical vessels, which are placed in a freezer that extracts heat from them at the same rate causing each liquid to transform into a solid. The schematic figure below shows that temperature $T$ versus time $t$ plot for the two materials. We denote the specific heat of materials in the liquid (solid) states to be $C_{L 1}$ $\left(C_{S 1}\right)$ and $C_{L 2}\left(C_{S 2}\right)$, respectively. Choose the correct option given below.

$A$ small particle of mass $m$ is given an initial high velocity in the horizontal plane and winds its cord around the fixed vertical shaft of radius $a$. All motion occurs essentially in horizontal plane. If the angular velocity of the cord is $\omega\, 0$ when the distance from the particle to the tangency point is $r_0$, then the angular velocity of the cord $\omega$ after it has turned through an angle $\theta$ is
