$A$ thin circular disc of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is rotating in a horizontal plane about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its plane with angular velocity $\omega$. If another disc of same dimensions but of mass $M/2$ is placed gently on the first disc co-axially,then the new angular velocity of the system is:

  • A
    $\frac{4}{5} \omega$
  • B
    $\frac{5}{4} \omega$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{3} \omega$
  • D
    $\frac{3}{2} \omega$

$A$ disc of moment of inertia $I_1$ is rotating in a horizontal plane about an axis passing through its center and perpendicular to its plane with a constant angular speed $\omega_1$. Another disc of moment of inertia $I_2$ having zero angular speed is placed coaxially on the rotating disc. Now,both the discs are rotating with a constant angular speed $\omega_2$. The energy lost by the initial rotating disc is

Two discs of moments of inertia $I_1$ and $I_2$ about their respective axes (normal to the disc and passing through the centre),and rotating with angular speed $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ are brought into contact face to face with their axes of rotation coincident. What is the loss in kinetic energy of the system in the process?
