Q.

The moment of inertia of a uniform disc about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its plane is 1 kg-m2. It is rotating with an angular velocity 100 radian/sec. Another identical disc is gently placed on it so that their centres coincide. Now these two discs together continue to rotate about the same axis. Then the loss in kinetic energy in kilojoules is:

I1 = 1 kg m2, ω1 = 100 rad/sec

Since the mass is doubled,

Final moment of inertia together, I2 = M2R22 = 2M.R22 = 2I1 = 2 kgm2

Conservation of angular momentum,

I1ω1 = I2ω2 or 1×100 = 2×ω2

or ω2 = 50 rad/sec

E1 = 12I1ω12 = 12×1×(100)2 = 5 ×103J

E2 = 12I2ω22 = 12×2×(50)2 = 2.5 ×103J.

Loss in KE = E1-E2 = 5×103 -2.5×103 = 2.5 kJ
