A) The total kinetic energy and the total angular momentum are unchanged from their initial values.
B) Both the total kinetic energy and the total angular momentum are reduced to half of their original values.
C) The total angular momentum is unchanged,but the total kinetic energy is reduced to half its original value.
D) The total angular momentum is reduced to half its original value,but the total kinetic energy is unchanged.
E) The total angular momentum is unchanged,and the total kinetic energy is reduced to one-quarter of its original value.
