$A$ boy stands with his hands folded at the center of a platform rotating about its central axis. The kinetic energy of the system is $K$. The boy now stretches his hands out, which doubles the moment of inertia of the system. The kinetic energy of the system will become

  • A
    $2 K$
  • B
    $K/2$
  • C
    $K/4$
  • D
    $4K$
