A solid sphere of radiusris gently placed on a rough horizontal surface with an initial angular speedω0but no linear velocity. If the coefficient of friction isμ, then the timetwhen the slipping will stop is

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

Letmbe the mass of the sphere.

Since, it is a case of backward slipping, force of friction is in forward direction. Limiting friction will act in this case.



Linear acceleration a = f m = μ mg m = μ g

Angular retardation α = τ I = f · r 2 5 mr 2 = 5 2 μ g r

Slipping will be stopped whenv=

at = r(ω0 - αt)

 μ gt = r ( ω 0 - 5 2 μ g t r )

 7 2 μ gt = r ω 0

t = 2 7 r ω 0 μ g
