Rolling Motion

A solid sphere is rolling on a horizontal plane without slipping. If the ratio of angular momentum about axis of rotation of the sphere to the total energy of moving sphere is π:22\pi : 22 then, the value of its angular speed will be ____________ rad/s\text{rad/s}.

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

Show answer and solution

Answer: 4

  1. L=Iω=25mR2ωL = I\omega = \frac{2}{5}mR^2\omega.
  2. Total KE of rolling sphere: E=710mv2=710mR2ω2E = \frac{7}{10}mv^2 = \frac{7}{10}mR^2\omega^2.
  3. LE=47ω=π22⇒ω=887π\dfrac{L}{E} = \dfrac{4}{7\omega} = \dfrac{\pi}{22} \Rightarrow \omega = \dfrac{88}{7\pi}
  4. With π=227\pi = \frac{22}{7}: ω=4\omega = 4 rad/s.
