A solid sphere of mass `M` and radius `R` is placed on a rough horizontal surface. It is stuck by a horizontal cue stick at a height `h` above the surface. The value of `h` so that the sphere performs pure rolling motion immediately after it has been stuck is A. `(2R)/5`B. `(5R)/2`C. `(7R)/5`D. `(9R)/5` |

Answer» Correct Answer - C Let `v` be the velocity of the centre of mass of the sphere and `omega` be the angular velocity of the body about an axis passing through the centre of mass. `J=Mv` `J(h-R)=2/5MR^(2)xxomega` From the above two equations `=v(h-R)=2/5r^(2)omega` From the condition of pure rolling `v=Romega` `h-R=(2R)/5impliesh=(7R)/5` |
