A hollow cylinder (hoop) of mass M and radius R starts rolling without slipping (with negligible initial speed) from the top of an inclined plane with angle theta. The cylinder is initially at a height h from the bottom of the inclined plane. The coefficient of friction is u. The moment of inertia of the hoop for the rolling motion described is I= mR^2.

a) What is the magnitude of the net force and net torque acting on the hoop? Derive expressions for the angular and linear acceleration of the hoop.

b) Using the principle of conservation of energy, derive an expression for the speed of the hoop at the bottom of the incline.

c) Using the results from part a) derive an expression for the speed of the hoop at the bottom of the incline. Show that this result agrees with the speed you obtain using the conservation of energy.

A hollow sphere (mass 8.8 kg, radius 54.8 cm) is rolling without slipping along a horizontal surface, so its center of mass is moving at speed vo. It now comes to an incline that makes an angle 56o with the horizontal, and it rolls without slipping up the incline until it comes to a complete stop. Find a, the magnitude of the linear acceleration of the ball as it travels up the incline, in m/s2.
