Question: A solid sphere of mass M and radius R = 0.3 m rolls without slipping a distance, x = 9 m down a ramp

A solid sphere of mass M and radius R = 0.3 m

A solid sphere of mass M and radius R = 0.3 m rolls without slipping a distance, x = 9 m down a ramp that is inclined at 0 = 30 with the horizontal. What is the angular speed of the sphere at the bottom of the slope if it starts from rest? 2 (consider the moment of inertia of the rolling sphere, 1 = MR and the acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s) M a) w 12.67 rad/s b) w = 44 rad/s c) w = 26.46 rad/s d) w = 65.7 rad/s h R x 0 VCM
