Solution:
The two discs exert equal and opposite forces on each other when in contact. The torque due to these forces changes the angular momentum of each disc. From angular impulse-angular momentum theorem, we have
----------(i)
and ---------(ii)
From eqns. (i) and (ii), we get ------(iii)
When slipping ceases between the discs, the contact points of the two discs have the same linear velocity,
i.e.,
On substituting in eqn. (iii) we get
