Question:

A round uniform body of radius $R$, mass $M$ and moment of inertia $I$, rolls down (without slipping) an inclined plane making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. Then its acceleration

Updated On: Jul 14, 2022
  • $\frac{g\,sin\,\theta}{1+\frac{I}{MR^{2}}}$
  • $\frac{g\,sin\,\theta}{1+\frac{MR^{2}}{I}}$
  • $\frac{g\,sin\,\theta}{1-\frac{I}{MR^{2}}}$
  • $\frac{g\,sin\,\theta}{1-\frac{MR^{2}}{I}}$

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

$Mg\,sin\,\theta-f=Ma$ $fR=I \frac{a}{R}$ $\Rightarrow a=\frac{g\,sin\,\theta}{\left(1+\frac{I}{MR^{2}}\right)}$

System of Particles and Rotational Motion

  1. The system of particles refers to the extended body which is considered a rigid body most of the time for simple or easy understanding. A rigid body is a body with a perfectly definite and unchangeable shape.
  2. The distance between the pair of particles in such a body does not replace or alter. Rotational motion can be described as the motion of a rigid body originates in such a manner that all of its particles move in a circle about an axis with a common angular velocity.
  3. The few common examples of rotational motion are the motion of the blade of a windmill and periodic motion.
