The angular speed of a body changes from $\omega_1$ to $\omega_2$ without applying a torque but due to changes in moment of inertia. The ratio of radii of gyration in two cases is

  • A
    $\sqrt{\omega_2} : \sqrt{\omega_1}$
  • B
    $\omega_2 : \omega_1$
  • C
    $\sqrt{\omega_2^2} : \sqrt{\omega_1^2}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{\omega_2^3} : \sqrt{\omega_1^3}$

$A$ circular disc of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is rotating about its axis with angular speed $\omega_{1}$. If another stationary disc having radius $\frac{R}{2}$ and same mass $M$ is dropped co-axially onto the rotating disc,gradually both discs attain a constant angular speed $\omega_{2}$. The energy lost in the process is $p \%$ of the initial energy. The value of $p$ is:
