Two discs have moments of intertia
and
about their respective axes perpendicular to the plane and passing through the centre. They are rotating with angular speeds,
and
respectively and are brought into contact face to face with their axes of rotation coaxial. The loss in kinetic energy of the system in the process is given by :
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
From conservation of angular momentum we get





Solving above we get
