Two discs are rotating about their axes, normal to the discs and passing through the centres of the discs. Disc D1 has 2 kg mass and 0.2 m radius and initial angular velocity of 50 rad s–1. Disc D2 has 4kg mass, 0.1 m radius and initial angular velocity of 200 rad s–1. The two discs are brought in contact face to face, with their axes of rotation coincident. The final angular velocity (in rad s–1) of the system is
-
- 40
- 60
- 100
- 120
Correct Option: C
Given: m1 = 2 kg m2 = 4 kg
r1 = 0.2 m r2 = 0.1 m
w1 = 50 rad s–1 w = 200 rad–1
As, angular momentum, I1W1 = I2W2 = Constant
∴ Wƒ = | = | m1r²h1w1 + | m2r²h2w2 | |||
I1W1 + I2W2 | ||||||
I1 + I2 | m1r²1 + | m2r²2 | ||||
2 | 2 |
By putting the value of m1, m2, r1, r2 and solving we get = 100 rad s–1
