A solid sphere of radius R and mass M is rolled by a force F acting at the top of the sphere as shown in the figure. The sphere starts from rest and rolls without slipping, then
Options
- Awork done by force F when the center moves a distance S is 2 F S
- Bwork done by force F when the center moves a distance S is 3 F S
- Cwork done by force F when the center moves a distance S is F S
- Dwork done by force F when the center moves a distance S is 4 F S
Correct answer
A. work done by force F when the center moves a distance S is 2 F S
Step-by-step solution
When the centre moves a distance S , the topmost point displaces by 2 S . The work done is by the force is W = 2 F S
