Question

(a) Determine the acceleration of the center of mass of a uniform solid disk rolling down an incline making angle ? with the horizontal. (Use any variable or symbol stated above along with the following as necessary: g for the acceleration of gravity.) (b) Compare the acceleration found in part (a) with that of a uniform hoop. (Use any variable or symbol stated above along with the following as necessary: g for the acceleration of gravity.) (c) What is the minimum coefficient of friction required to maintain pure rolling motion for the disk? (Use any variable or symbol stated above along with the following as necessary: g for the acceleration of gravity.)

Explanation / Answer

disk = (1/1.5)g x sin(theta) hoop= (1/2)g x sin(theta)
