Explanation:
PHYSICS
A solid sphere of radius r is rolling on a horizontal surface. The ratio between the rotational kinetic energy and total kinetic energy is:
A .
75
B .
72
C .
21
ANSWER
Moment of inertia of solid sphere about an axis passing through its centre is given by I=52MR2
Velocity of centre of mass is given by v=Rω
Hence, translational kinetic energy is given by, KEL=21Mv2
∴KEL=21MR2ω2
Rotational kinetic energy is given by KER=21×52MR2ω2
Total kinetic energy, KET=KEL+KER=21×57
