Question

Two discs of same moment of inertia rotating about their regular axis passing through centre and perpendicular to the plane of disc with angular velocities &#969;1&#160;and&#160;&#969;2. They are brought into contact face to face coinciding the axis of rotation. The expression for loss of energy during this process is:-

Accepted Answer

COAM : I&#969;1+I&#969;2=2I&#969;&#160;&#8658;&#969;=&#969;1+&#969;22 (K.E.)i = 12I&#969;12+12I&#969;22 (K.E.)f =12&#215;2I&#969;2=I&#969;1+&#969;222 Loss in K.E. = (K.E.)i - (K.E)f = I4(&#969;1-&#969;2)2
