A force F acts at the centre of a thin spherical shell of mass m and radius R.
Find the acceleration of the shell if the surface is smooth.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`:' ` Force F, mg & N passes through centre so
`tau_(" net ") = 0,i.e.,` body is in rotational equilibrium
But `vec(F) _(" net ") = F ` so body moves with constant
acceleration ` a = (F)/(m)`
