Question:
You have a cylinder. You don't know what its internal structure looks like, but you plan to roll it down a ramp, as in this week's procedure. The ramp is long, and is elevated at an angle of The mass of the cylinder is and its diameter is Answer the following questions regarding this situation.
You set the cylinder and hold it at rest at the top of the ramp. How much total energy in J does the block have at the top of the ramp?
After you release the cylinder, it rolls down the ramp without slipping, gaining speed. How much total energy in J does the block have at the bottom of the ramp?
Type your answer...
Caution Tricky If the velocity of the cylinder is at the bottom of the ramp, what is the value of see equation for this unusual cylinder in SI units Express your answer as a decimal ie
