A horizontal disk with moment of inertia I1 rotates with angular speed ?1 about a vertical frictionless axle. A second horizontal disk, with moment of inertia I2 drops onto the first, initially not rotating but sharing the same axis as the first disk. Because their surfaces are rough, the two disks eventually reach the same angular speed ?. The ratio ?/?1 is equal to
1. I1 / I2
2. I2 / I1
3. I1 / (I1 + I2)
4. I2 / (I1 + I2)
