A circular ring of mass 10 kg rolls along a horizontal floor. The center of mass of the ring has a speed 1.5 m/s. The work required to stop the ring is

Answer»

10 J
`-6J`
14.5 J
`-22.5 J`

Solution :Given
mass of a circular ring, m = 10kg
speed of CENTRE of mass of the ring i.e., linear speed of ring,u = 15 m/s Total initial KINETIC energy of rolling ring,
`K_i = K_("rotational") + K_("linear") = 1/2 I omega^2 + 1/2 mv^2`
Here , `I = mR^2 " and " omega= v/R`
` = 1/2 mR^2 (v/R)^2 + 1/2 mv^2 = 1/2 mv^2 + 1/2 mv^2 = mv^2`
`= 10 xx (1.5)^2 = 22.5 J`
According to work-energy theorem, work required to stop the ring
` omega`change in kinetic energy
` = K_f - K_i = 0 - 22.5 = -22.5J`
