A circular disk of moment of inertia ItI_t is rotating in a horizontal plane, about its symmetry axis, with a constant angular speed ωi\omega_i. Another disk of moment of inertia IbI_b is dropped coaxially onto the rotating disk. Initially the second disk has zero angular speed. Eventually both the disks rotate with a constant angular speed ωf\omega_{\mathrm{f}}. The energy lost by the initially rotating disc due to friction is

Options

  1. A\frac{1}{2} \frac{\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{b}}^2}{\left(\mathrm{I}t+_{\mathrm{t}}+\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{b}}\right)} \omega_{\mathrm{i}}^2
  2. B\frac{1}{2} \frac{\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{t}}^2}{\left(\mathrm{I}t+_{\mathrm{t}}+\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{b}}\right)} \omega_{\mathrm{i}}^2
  3. C\frac{1}{2} \frac{\mathrm{I}b−_{\mathrm{b}}-\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{t}}}{\left(\mathrm{I}t+_{\mathrm{t}}+\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{b}}\right)} \omega_{\mathrm{i}}^2
  4. D\frac{1}{2} \frac{\mathrm{I}b_{\mathrm{b}}\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{t}}}{\left(\mathrm{L}_{\mathrm{t}}+\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{b}}\right)} \omega_{\mathrm{i}}^2

Correct answer

D. \frac{1}{2} \frac{\mathrm{I}b_{\mathrm{b}}\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{t}}}{\left(\mathrm{L}_{\mathrm{t}}+\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{b}}\right)} \omega_{\mathrm{i}}^2

Step-by-step solution

Loss of energy, ΔE=12\Delta \mathrm{E}=\frac{1}{2}\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{t}} \omega_{\mathrm{i}}^2-\frac{1}{2} \frac{\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{t}}^2 \omega_{\mathrm{i}}^2}{\left(\mathrm{I}t+_{\mathrm{t}}+\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{b}}\right)}=\frac{1}{2} \frac{I\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{b}} I\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{t}} \omega_{\mathrm{i}}^2}{\left(\mathrm{I}t+_{\mathrm{t}}+\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{b}}\right)}
