Here, m = 5 kg, I = 0.65 kg m2          ω = 10 rad s-1,  R = 0.40 mLinear velocity        v = Rω = 0.40× 10 = 4 ms-1Translatiional KE          = 12mv2 = 12×5×16 = 40 JRotational KE        = 12Iω2 = 12×0.65×100 = 32.5 JTotal KE = Translational KE + Rotational KE         = 40+32.5 = 72.5 JPercentage of rotational KE = Rotational KETotal KE  ×100                                             = 32.572.5×100 = 44.8%
