Question

A solid sphere of mass M and radius r slips on a rough horizontal plane. At some instant it has translational velocity v0 and rotational velocity about the centre vo2r. The translational velocity after the sphere starts pure rolling is xvo/y in forward direction. Find (x+y)

Open in App
Solution

Draw a diagram of given problem.

Find translational velocity after the sphere starts pure rolling.

As we know, angular momentum is conserved about lowest point.
Therefore,

mv0r+25mr2v02r=mvr+25mr2vr
10mv0r+2mv0r10=7mvr5
v=6v07
Hence, we get
x=6 and y=7
i.e., (x+y)=6+7=13
