Rolling Motion

A hollow sphere is rolling on a plane surface about its axis of symmetry. The ratio of rotational kinetic energy to its total kinetic energy is x5\frac{x}{5}. The value of xx is _________.

Numerical answer type. Work it out, then open the answer.

Show answer and solution

Answer: 2

  1. Hollow sphere: k2R2=23\frac{k^2}{R^2} = \frac{2}{3}.
  2. KrotKtotal=2/31+2/3=25\frac{K_{rot}}{K_{total}} = \frac{2/3}{1 + 2/3} = \frac{2}{5}
  3. So x=2x = 2.
