Class 11PhysicsSystem of Particles and Rotational MotionConservation of angular momentum (combined translation and rotational motion)
Difficult$A$ wheel is rotating freely with an angular speed $\omega$ on a shaft. The moment of inertia of the wheel is $I$ and the moment of inertia of the shaft is negligible. Another wheel of moment of inertia $3I$ initially at rest is suddenly coupled to the same shaft. The resultant fractional loss in the kinetic energy of the system is:
- A$0$
- B$\frac{1}{4}$
- C$\frac{3}{4}$
- D$\frac{5}{6}$
