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
    $\sqrt{\omega_2^3} : \sqrt{\omega_1^3}$

$A$ disc of moment of inertia $I_1$ is rotating in a horizontal plane about an axis passing through its center and perpendicular to its plane with a constant angular speed $\omega_1$. Another disc of moment of inertia $I_2$ having zero angular speed is placed coaxially on the rotating disc. Now,both the discs are rotating with a constant angular speed $\omega_2$. The energy lost by the initial rotating disc is

$A$ thin uniform circular disc of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is rotating with angular velocity $\omega$ in a horizontal plane about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its plane. Another disc of the same radius but of mass $\frac{M}{3}$ is placed gently on the first disc co-axially. The new angular velocity will be:
