$A$ sphere of radius $R$ is rolling down an inclined plane whose angle of inclination is $\theta$. Its acceleration would be

  • A
    $ \frac{5}{7}g \sin \theta $
  • B
    $ \frac{3}{5}g \sin \theta $
  • C
    $ \frac{2}{7}g \sin \theta $
  • D
    $ \frac{2}{5}g \sin \theta $

$A$ ring,sphere,and disc are rolling down an inclined plane from the same height. Find the wrong statement: (where $t$ is the time of descent,$a$ is the acceleration,and $v$ is the speed at the bottom).

$Assertion$ : The velocity of a body at the bottom of an inclined plane of given height is more when it slides down the plane,compared to when it rolls down the same plane.
$Reason$ : In rolling down,a body acquires both kinetic energy of translation and rotation.

$A$ solid cylinder of diameter $30 \ cm$ is rolled down an inclined plane from a height of $2 \ m$. If there is no energy loss due to friction,the angular velocity at the base of the plane is ....... $rad/s$. (Take $g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

Prove that the velocity $v$ of translation of a rolling body (like a ring,disc,cylinder,or sphere) at the bottom of an inclined plane of height $h$ is given by $v^{2} = \frac{2gh}{1 + k^{2}/R^{2}}$ using dynamical considerations (i.e.,by considering forces and torques). Note: $k$ is the radius of gyration of the body about its symmetry axis,and $R$ is the radius of the body. The body starts from rest at the top of the plane.

$A$ uniform sphere of radius $R$ and mass $m$ is placed on an inclined plane which makes an angle $45^{\circ}$ to the horizontal. For which of the following values of the coefficient of friction does the sphere roll without slipping? Select the incorrect option.
