Consider a disc of mass $5 \,kg$ and radius $2 \,m$, rotating with an angular velocity of $10 \,rad/s$ about an axis perpendicular to the plane of rotation and passing through its center. An identical disc is placed gently over the rotating disc along the same axis. The energy dissipated so that both the discs continue to rotate together without slipping is . . . . . . $J$.

Initial angular velocity of a circular disc of mass $M$ is $\omega_{1}$. Then two small spheres of mass $m$ are attached gently to two diametrically opposite points on the edge of the disc. What is the final angular velocity of the disc?

$A$ circular disc with moment of inertia $I_t$ is rotating in a horizontal plane about its symmetry axis with a constant angular speed $\omega_i$. Another disc with moment of inertia $I_b$ is placed coaxially onto the rotating disc. Initially,the second disc has zero angular speed. Finally,both discs rotate with a constant angular speed $\omega_f$. What is the energy lost due to friction by the rotating disc initially?

Two wheels $A$ and $B$ are mounted on the same axis. The moment of inertia of wheel $A$ is $I_A$ and its angular velocity is $\omega_A$,while wheel $B$ is initially at rest. When they are coupled together by a clutch,they rotate with a common angular velocity $\omega$. What is the moment of inertia of wheel $B$?
