Rotational Motion question

NEETPhysicsRotational MotionMCQ+4 / −1
A circular disk of moment of inertia It{I_t}It​ is rotating in a horizontal plane, about its symmetry axis, with a constant angular speed ωi{\omega _i}ωi​. Another disk of moment of inertia Ib{I_b}Ib​ 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 ω\omegaω. The energy lost by the initially rotating disc to friction is

Correct answer: D

As no external torque is applied to the system, the angular momentum of the system remains conserved.

∴\therefore∴ Li = Lf

According to given problem,

Itωi=(It+Ib)ωf{I_t}{\omega _i} = \left( {{I_t} + {I_b}} \right){\omega _f}It​ωi​=(It​+Ib​)ωf​

⇒ωf=Itωi(It+Ib) \Rightarrow {\omega _f} = {{{I_t}{\omega _i}} \over {\left( {{I_t} + {I_b}} \right)}}⇒ωf​=(It​+Ib​)It​ωi​​    ...(i)

Initial energy, Ei=12Itωi2{E_i} = {1 \over 2}{I_t}\omega _i^2Ei​=21​It​ωi2​   ...(ii)

Final energy, Ef=12(It+Ib)ωf2{E_f} = {1 \over 2}\left( {{I_t} + {I_b}} \right)\omega _f^2Ef​=21​(It​+Ib​)ωf2​   ...(iii)

Substituting the value of ωf{\omega _f}ωf​ from equation (i) in equation (iii), we get

Final energy, Ef=12(It+Ib)(Itωi(It+Ib))2{E_f} = {1 \over 2}\left( {{I_t} + {I_b}} \right){\left( {{{{I_t}{\omega _i}} \over {\left( {{I_t} + {I_b}} \right)}}} \right)^2}Ef​=21​(It​+Ib​)((It​+Ib​)It​ωi​​)2

=12It2ωi2It+Ib = {1 \over 2}{{I_t^2\omega _i^2} \over {{I_t} + {I_b}}}=21​It​+Ib​It2​ωi2​​   ...(iv)

Loss of energy, Δ\Delta ΔE = Ei – Ef

=12Itωi2−12It2ωi2(It+Ib) = {1 \over 2}{I_t}\omega _i^2 - {1 \over 2}{{I_t^2\omega _i^2} \over {\left( {{I_t} + {I_b}} \right)}}=21​It​ωi2​−21​(It​+Ib​)It2​ωi2​​     (Using (ii) and (iv))

=ωi22(It−It2(It+Ib))=ωi22(It2−IbIt−It2(It+Ib)) = {{\omega _i^2} \over 2}\left( {{I_t} - {{I_t^2} \over {\left( {{I_t} + {I_b}} \right)}}} \right) = {{\omega _i^2} \over 2}\left( {{{I_t^2 - {I_b}{I_t} - I_t^2} \over {\left( {{I_t} + {I_b}} \right)}}} \right)=2ωi2​​(It​−(It​+Ib​)It2​​)=2ωi2​​((It​+Ib​)It2​−Ib​It​−It2​​)

=12IbIt(It+Ib)ωi2 = {1 \over 2}{{{I_b}{I_t}} \over {\left( {{I_t} + {I_b}} \right)}}\omega _i^2=21​(It​+Ib​)Ib​It​​ωi2​
