Two discs of moment of inertia $I_1 = 4 \ kg \ m^2$ and $I_2 = 2 \ kg \ m^2$ about their central axes and normal to their planes,rotating with angular speeds $10 \ rad/s$ and $4 \ rad/s$ respectively,are brought into contact face to face with their axes of rotation coincident. The loss in kinetic energy of the system in the process is . . . . . . $J$.
