Subjective Type

A holosphere of radius $$0.15\ m$$, with rotational inertia $$I=0.040\ kg. m^2$$ about a line through its centre of mass, rolls without slipping up a surface inclined at $$30^o$$ to the horizontal. At a certain initial position, the sphere's total kinetic energy is $$20\ J$$. How much of this initial kinetic energy is rotational?

In figure, a solid ball rolls smoothly from rest (starting at height $$H=6.0\ m$$) until it leaves the horizontal section at the end of the track, at height $$h=2.0\ m$$. How far horizontally from point $$A$$ does the ball hit the floor?

In figure, a constant horizontal force $$\vec F_{app}$$ of magnitude of $$10\ N$$ is applied to a wheel of mass $$10\ kg$$ and radius $$0.30\ m$$. The wheel rolls smoothly on the horizontal surface, and the acceleration of its centre of mass has magnitude $$0.60\ m/s^2$$. In unit-vector notation, what is the frictional force on the wheel?

Rotational Dynamics

A bowler throws a bowling a lane. The ball slides on the lane with initial speed $$v_{com.0}=8.5\ m/s$$ and initial angular speed $$\omega _0 =0$$. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the ball and the lane is $$0.21$$. The kinetic friction force $$\vec f_{k}$$ acting on the ball causes an angular acceleration of the ball. When speed $$v_{com}$$ has decreases enough and angular speed $$\omega$$ has increased enough, the ball stops sliding and then rolls smoothly. How long does the ball slide?

A semi-circular track of radius $$R=62.5cm$$ is cut in a block. Mass of block, having track, is $$M=1kg$$ and rests over a smooth horizontal floor. A cylinder of radius $$r=10cm$$ and mass $$m=0.5kg$$ is hanging by a thread such that axes of cylinder and track are in same level and surface of cylinder is in contact with the track as shown in figure. When the thread is burnt, cylinder starts to move down the track. Sufficient friction exists between surface of cylinder and track, so that cylinder does not slip. Calculate velocity of axis of cylinder (in m/s) when it reaches bottom of the track. ($$g=10{ms}^{-2}$$).
