PhysicsSystems of Particles and Rotational MotionJEE Main 2020

A wheel is rotaing freely with an angular speed on a shaft. The moment of inertia of the wheel is I and the moment of inertia of the shaft is negligible. Another wheel of momet of inertia 3I initially at rest is suddenly coupled to the same shaft. The resultant fractional loss in the kinetic energy of the system is :
