Rolling Motion

A body slides down a smooth inclined plane having angle θ\theta and reaches the bottom with velocity vv. If a body is a sphere, then its linear velocity at the bottom of the plane is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. Sliding: v2=2ghv^2 = 2gh.
  2. Rolling sphere: mgh=710mv′2⇒v′2=107ghmgh = \frac{7}{10}mv'^2 \Rightarrow v'^2 = \frac{10}{7}gh.
  3. v′=57 vv' = \sqrt{\frac{5}{7}}\,v.
  4. So the answer is (b).
