State of the sphere at some instant of t...

State of the sphere at some instant of time is shown in figure. Surface below the sphere is rough. At the given instant, speed of the centre of the sphere is u and angular velocity about the centre is u/2r. Select correct statement (s)

A

Direction of friction on the sphere is towards left

B

Direction of friction on the sphere is towards right

C

Angular momentum about point o remains conserved

D

Angular momentum about point B remains conserved

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, D
Forces acting on the sphere are as shown in figure.
Velocity of the bottom point B due to translation is u towards right and due to rotation it is u/2 towards left. Hence net velocity of the bottom point is towards right. So we can understand that friction will act towards eft in order to oppose this relative motion. Option (a) is correct whereas (b) is wrong.
Further we can see that friction is applying torque about the centre O hence angular momentum about the centre will not remain conserved. Hence option (c) is wrong
All the forces are passing through the point B hence there is no torque about this point. So angular momentum about the point B remains conserved. Option (d) is also correct.

A sphere of radius R rolls without slipping between two planks as shown in figure. Find (a) Speed of centre of sphere (b) Angular velocity of the sphere

A uniform sphere of radius R has a spherical cavity of radius (R)/(2) (see figure). Mass of the sphere with cavity is M. The sphere is rolling without sliding on a rough horizontal floor [the line joining the centre of sphere to the centre of the cavity remains in vertical plane]. When the centre of the cavity is at lowest position, the centre of the sphere has horizontal velocity V. Find: (a) The kinetic energy of the sphere at this moment. (b) The velocity of the centre of mass at this moment. (c) The maximum permissible value of V ( in the position shown ) which allows the sphere to roll without bouncing
