Question
A uniform ball of radius 0.1 m and mass 1 kg is released from rest on a no-slip surface, as shown in the figure, at a height of 2m. a. If the ball’s speed at the bottom is 5.29 m/s, what is its rotational kinetic energy? b. What is its translational kinetic energy? c. If there were no friction, what speed would it reach the bottom with?
