,
where M and R are mass and radius of the cylinder respectively.)
2. (a) Calculate the translational and rotational speeds of a
solid cylinder (radius 25.0 cm and mass 2.00 kg) that rolls without
slipping down a 30.0o incline that is 10.0m long, when
it reaches the bottom. Assume it started from rest. (b) What
is its ratio of translational to rotational KE at the bottom?
(Moment of inertia of a solid cylinder is ,
where M and R are mass and radius of the cylinder respectively.)
