A 22 g ball with a radius of 29 mm rolls back and forth in a
hemispherical bowl of radius 6 cm.
(a) What is the period of the oscillation if the ball is
solid?
(b) What is the period of the oscillation if the ball is
hollow?
(c) What is the percent difference between the two?
Hi,
Hope you are doing well.
PART (a):
For solid ball rolling back and forth in hemispherical bowl, we have,
Given that,

PART (b):
For hollow ball rolling back and forth in hemispherical bowl, we have,
Given that,
Radius of the bowl,
Radius of the sphere,
Time period
is given by,
![]() |
PART (c):
