Detailed Solution

Total kinetic energy of loop $\frac{1}{2} {Iω}^{2} + \frac{1}{2} {Mv}^{2}$

$= \frac{1}{2} ({MR}^{2} ω^{2}) + \frac{1}{2} {Mv}^{2} = {Mv}^{2} = 8 J (given)$

Total kinetic energy of $disc = \frac{1}{2} {Iω}^{2} + \frac{1}{2} {Mv}^{2}$

$= \frac{1}{2} (\frac{{MR}^{2}}{2} ω^{2}) + \frac{1}{2} {Mv}^{2} = \frac{3}{4} {Mv}^{2} = \frac{3}{4} \times 8 = 6 J$
