Solution

The correct option is D


Let 'I' and 'ω' be the moment of inertia and angular velocity of the combined system of discs.

Applying conservation of angular momentum,

I1 ω1 + I2 ω2 = Iω

ω = (I1ω1+I2ω2)2(I1+I2)

Rotational K.E of the system = 12 I ω2 = 12 (I1 + I2) ⎪ ⎪ ⎪(I1ω1+I2ω2)2(I1+I2)⎪ ⎪ ⎪2
K.E = ω = (I1ω1+I2ω2)22(I1+I2)
