Five masses each of $2\, kg$ are placed on a horizontal circular disc, which can be rotated about a vertical axis passing through its centre and all the masses be equidistant from the axis and at a distance of $10\, cm$ from it. The moment of inertia of the whole system (in $gm-cm^2$ ) is: (Assume disc is of negligible mass)

  • A

    $10^5$

  • B

    $10^4$

  • C

A circular disk of moment of inertia $I_t$ is rotating in a horizontal plane, about its symmetry axis, with a constant angular speed $\omega _i$. Another disk of moment of inertia $I_b$ is dropped coaxially onto the rotating disk. Initially the second disk has zero angular speed. Eventually both the disks rotate with a constant angular speed $\omega _f$. The energy lost by the initially rotating disc to friction is
