Question

Two cylinders having radii 2R and R and moment of inertia 4I and I about their central axes are supported by axles perpendicular to their planes. The large cylinder is initially rotating clockwise with angular velocity ω0. The small cylinder is moved to the right until it touches the large cylinder and is caused to rotate by the frictional force between the two. Eventually slipping ceases and the two cylinders rotate at constant rates in opposite direction. During this

Solution

The correct option is A neither the angular momentum not the kinetic energy is conserved
There is a finite net torque about point O, O' and A. Thus angular momentum is not conserved.
Initial K.E, Ei=12(4I)w2o=2Iw2o
Final K.E, Ef=12Iw2o+12(4I)w2o4=Iw2o
Thus K.E is also not conserved.
