a

Some friction exists between the disc and the ring

b

The angular momentum of the 'disc plus ring' is conserved.

c

The final common angular velocity is (2/3)rd of the initial angular velocity of the disc.

d

(2/3)rd of the initial kinetic energy changes to heat.

Detailed Solution

Let ω1 = the initial angular velocity of the disc. ω2 = the final common angular velocity of the disc and the ring. For the disc, I1=12mr2For the ring, l2=mr2By conservation of angular momentum, L=I1ω1−I1+I2ω2 or  ω2=l1ω1I1+I2=ω1/3 Initial kinetic energy =E1=12I1ω12 Final kinetic energy =E2=12I1+I2ω22 Heat produced = loss in kinetic energy =E1−E2 Ratio of heat produced to initial kinetic energy =E1−E2E1=23
