A 350-N sphere 0.20 m in radius rolls without slipping 6.0 m down a ramp that is inclined at 25° with the horizontal. What is the angular speed of the sphere at the bottom of the slope if it starts from rest? rad/s
from energy coservation
[ rotational kinetic energy + translational energy + potentional energy ]top =[ rotational kinetic energy + translational energy + potentional energy ]bottom
at top
rotational kinetic energy = 0 since at rest on top
translational energy = 0
and potentional energy =
at bottom
rotational kinetic energy =
translational energy =
potentional energy = 0;
since no slipping
and
so from energy conservation :
so here we take g = 9.81 m/s^2
m/s
so angular velocity from
