JEE Main2012PhysicsRotational MotionActual
A solid sphere having mass m and radius r rolls down an inclined plane. Then its kinetic energy is
Options
- A5 7 rotational and 2 7 translational
- B2 7 rotational and 5 7 translational
- C2 5 rotational and 3 5 translational
- D1 2 rotational and 1 2 translational
Correct answer
B. 2 7 rotational and 5 7 translational
Step-by-step solution
aligned & K . E_ rotational = 1 2 I ^2 & = 1 2 2 5 r^2 d^2 ( I_ Solid sphere = 2 5 m r^2 ) & K E_ translational = 1 2 m v^2 & K E_ rotational K E_ translational = 2 5 aligned Hence option (b) is correct
