use, \mathrm{L= mvr }...........(1)

but \mathrm{v=r \omega \: and\: r=2 \pi f }

Now, \mathrm{L=m v \times\left[\frac{v}{2 \pi f}\right] =\frac{1}{2} m v^2 \times \frac{1}{\pi f} }

                                           \mathrm{=\frac{k E}{\pi f} \quad\quad\left[\because k=\frac{1}{2} m v^2\right]}

if the frequency is doubled and K.E. is halved then, New angular momentum,

\mathrm{L^{\prime}=\frac{K E^{\prime}}{\pi f^{\prime}} =\frac{\frac{K E}{2}}{\pi(2 f)} }

                     \mathrm{ =\frac{L}{4} }

Hence option 3 is correct.
