Two disks are initially spinning, one above the other on a small axle that provides a small, but non-negligible torque from friction, as shown in the figure below. Both disks have the same radius, R=2.68 m. Disk 1 has a moment of inertia I_1=11.1 kg⋅m2. Disk 2 has a moment of inertia I_2=16.6 kg⋅m2. Let vertically up be the z direction, such that counterclockwise rotation as viewed from above corresponds to positive values of the z-component. Disk 1 is initially spinning with a z-component of angular velocity ω_1,z=10.3 rad/s, and disk 2 is initially spinning with a z-component of angular velocity ω_2,z=−15.5 rad/s.
*Common angular velocity: ω_common,z = -5.161 rad/s
