Two discs have moments of inertia $I_{1}$ and $I_{2}$ about their respective axes perpendicular to the plane and passing through the centre. They are rotating with angular speeds $\omega_{1}$ and $\omega_{2}$ respectively and are brought into contact face to face with their axes of rotation coaxial. The loss in kinetic energy of the system in the process is given by:

Moment of Inertia of a thin uniform rod rotating about the perpendicular axis passing through its centre is $I$. If the same rod is bent into a ring and its moment of inertia about its diameter is $I^{\prime}$,then the ratio $\frac{I}{I^{\prime}}$ is
