A uniform ball of radius r is placed on the top of a sphere of radius R=10r. It is given a slight push due to which it starts rolling down the sphere without slipping. The spin angular velocity of the ball when it breaks off from the sphere is ω=pqgr, where g is the acceleration due to gravity and p and q are the smallest integers. What is the value of p+q?

Answer:
127.00
Solution:

mv2R+r=mg cosθ

mgh=12mv2+12Iω2

mg R + r 1 - cos θ = 1 2 mv 2 + 1 5 mv 2 = 7 1 0 mv 2

         

1 0 7 mg 1 - cos θ = mg cos θ

mv 2 = 1 0 7 mg R + r 1 - cos θ 1 0 7 = 1 7 7 cos θ

or  cos θ = 1 0 1 7

v = g R + r cos θ = 1 0 1 7 g R + r

and ω=vr=10gR+r17r2=110g17r

p+q=127
