A solid sphere is rotating freely about an axis as shown. An insect moves and follows the dotted path on the circumfercenec of sphere. Match the following ignoring gravity –

Column I | Column II |
(i) Moment of inertia of system | [A] Will remain constant |
(ii) Angular Velocity | [B] Will first increase then decrease |
(iii) Angular momentum | [C] Will first decrease then increase |
(iv) Rotational kinetic energy | [D] Will continuously decrease |
