How could you experimentally determine the acceleration of the solid sphere rolling down the inclined board?

Solutions

Expert Solution

if we mark the three lines on inclined plane at some distance and note down the time at which it passes through this line we can find the acceleration. Initially the velocity of the sphere is zero(at first line) when it passes through the 2nd line note this time and measure the distance between first line and second line then find the velovity by using the equation

  

similarly measure the distance between second and third line and note the time taken by the sphere to reach third line. now find the velocity of this portion.

now you have two velocity one of first portion and one of 2nd portion, now you can find the acceleration using equation

A hollow ball and a solid sphere are released from rest and roll down an inclined plane. Both have a mass of 1 kg, a radius of 5 cm, and experience a torque of 0.01 N m. Assume both balls roll without slipping. What is the difference in their linear velocities after the balls have both lost 4 m of elevation? I’d like you to use energy to solve this problem.

1. Ball rolling down an incline :Later you will be measuring the acceleration of the rolling ball down the incline for several different incline angles, and we want to compare with the theoretical expected value. The best way to show this is to plot the acceleration on the vertical axis, and the value of sin(θ) on the horizontal axis, as shown on the plot below. Draw in the expected theoretical variation of the acceleration on this plot. 2. A 0.200...

Rotational Inertia –Rolling Kinetic Energy. A solid sphere, a hollow sphere, a hollow cylinder, and a solid cylinder, all of with same mass (M=0.25 kg ) and radius(R= 0.20 m) – are placed at the top of an incline at height (h= 1.5 m ). All the objects are released from rest at the same moment to roll down without slipping. Hint: search for the rotational inertia formula for each of the rolling object first. Then calculate each of them...

A 1kg ring with a radius of 10 cm rolls down a board inclined at 30 degrees from a height of 4 meter. At the bottom of the inclined, n a frictionless table fits a 3-kg block. After coming off of the incline, the ring slides (without rolling) until colliding and coupling with the block. The ring-block system then continues to move and flies off the edge of the 1.5 meter high table. What is the velocity of the ring-block...
