Rotational Motion Question 138

Question: A small solid sphere of radius r rolls down an incline without slipping which ends into a vertical loop of radius R . Find the height above the base so that it just loops the loop

Options:

A) 52R

B) 52(Rr)

C) 2510(Rr)

D) 2710R17r10

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

[d]The minimum velocity at P, top of the loop, should be

v=g(Rr) , if the sphere keeps on rolling at top

v=ωR

mgh=12mv2+12Iω2+mg(2Rr)

=12mg(Rr)+12(25)mR22ω2+mg(2Rr)

=710mg(Rr)+mg(2Rr)

ωR=v=g(Rr)

=mg10(27R17r)orh=110(27R17r)
