Two coaxial discs,having moments of inertia $I_1$ and $\frac{I_1}{2}$,are rotating with angular velocities $\omega_1$ and $\frac{\omega_1}{2}$ respectively,about their common axis. They are brought into contact with each other and thereafter they rotate with a common angular velocity. If $E_f$ and $E_i$ are the final and initial total energies,then $(E_f - E_i)$ is

  • A
    $\frac{I_1 \omega_1^2}{6}$
  • B
    $\frac{3}{8} I_1 \omega_1^2$
  • C
    $-\frac{I_1 \omega_1^2}{12}$
  • D
    $-\frac{I_1 \omega_1^2}{24}$

$A$ horizontal disc of moment of inertia $4.25 \,kg \cdot m^2$ with respect to its axis of symmetry is spinning counter-clockwise at $15 \,rps$ about its axis,as viewed from above. $A$ second disc of moment of inertia $1.80 \,kg \cdot m^2$ with respect to its axis of symmetry is spinning clockwise at $25 \,rps$ as viewed from above about the same axis and is dropped on top of the first disc. The two discs stick together and rotate as one about their axis of symmetry. The new angular velocity of the system as viewed from above is close to

$A$ mass $m$ moves in a circle on a smooth horizontal plane with velocity $v_0$ at a radius $R_0$. The mass is attached to a string which passes through a smooth hole in the plane as shown. The tension in the string is increased gradually and finally $m$ moves in a circle of radius $\frac{R_0}{2}$. The final value of the kinetic energy is
