Two discs of moments of inertia $I_1$ and $I_2$ about their respective axes (normal to the disc and passing through the centre),and rotating with angular speed $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ are brought into contact face to face with their axes of rotation coincident. What is the loss in kinetic energy of the system in the process?

  • A
    $\frac{I_1 I_2 (\omega_1 - \omega_2)^2}{2(I_1 + I_2)}$
  • B
    $\frac{I_1 I_2 (\omega_1 - \omega_2)^2}{(I_1 + I_2)}$
  • C
    $\frac{I_1 I_2 (\omega_1 + \omega_2)^2}{(I_1 - I_2)}$
  • D
    $\frac{I_1 I_2 (\omega_1 + \omega_2)^2}{2(I_1 - I_2)}$
