At some instant they get stuck together and start rotating as a single system about their common axis with some angular speed. The Kinetic energy of the combined system is :

Q. Two uniform circular discs are rotating independently in the same direction around their common axis passing through their centres. The moment of inertia and angular velocity of the first disc are $0.1\, kg - m ^{2}$ and $10 \,rad\, s^{-1}$ respectively while those for the second one are $0.2\, kg - m ^{2}$ and $5\, rad \,s ^{-1}$ respectively. At some instant they get stuck together and start rotating as a single system about their common axis with some angular speed. The Kinetic energy of the combined system is :

JEE MainJEE Main 2020System of Particles and Rotational Motion Report Error

Solution:

$•$ Both discs are rotating in same sense
$•$ Angular momentum conserved for the system
i.e. $\quad L_{1}+L_{2}=L_{\text {final }}$
$I _{1} \omega_{1}+ I _{2} \omega_{2}=\left( I _{1}+ I _{2}\right) \omega_{ f }$
$0.1 \times 10+0.2 \times 5=(0.1+0.2) \times \omega_{ f }$
$\omega_{ f }=\frac{20}{3}$
$•$ Kinetic energy of combined disc system
$\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}\left( I _{1}+ I _{2}\right) \omega_{ f }^{2}$
$=\frac{1}{2}(0.1+0.2) .\left(\frac{20}{3}\right)^{2}$
$=\frac{0.3}{2} \times \frac{400}{9}=\frac{120}{18}=\frac{20}{3}\, J$
