$A$ uniform circular disc of radius $R$,lying on a frictionless horizontal plane,is rotating with an angular velocity $\omega$ about its own axis. Another identical circular disc is gently placed on top of the first disc coaxially. The loss in rotational kinetic energy due to friction between the two discs,as they acquire a common angular velocity,is ($I$ is the moment of inertia of the disc).

  • A
    $\frac{1}{8} I \omega^2$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{4} I \omega^2$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2} I \omega^2$
  • D
    $I \omega^2$

$A$ disc of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is free to rotate about its vertical axis as shown in the figure. $A$ battery-operated motor of negligible mass is fixed to this disc at a point on its circumference. Another disc of the same mass $M$ and radius $R/2$ is fixed to the motor's thin shaft. Initially,both the discs are at rest. The motor is switched on so that the smaller disc rotates at a uniform angular speed $\omega$. If the angular speed at which the large disc rotates is $\omega/n$,then the value of $n$ is. . . . .
