A puck moves on a horizontal air table. It is attached to a string that passes through a hole in the center of the table

As the puck rotates about the hole, the string is pulled downward very slowly and shortens the radius of rotation, so the puck gradually spirals in towards the center. What happens to the puck's angular speed?
