A mass sliding down an inclined plane and reaches the bottom with velocity v. If the same mass is in the form of a disc and rolls down the same inclined plane, what is its velocity at the bottom ?

A

v

B

`sqrt((2)/(3)v)`

C

`sqrt(2)v`

D

`(v)/(sqrt(2))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Here K.E. of mass = `(1)/(2)mv^(2)`
Total K.E. of disc = `(1)/(2)mv_(d)^(2)+(1)/(2)((1)/(2)mr^(2))omega^(2)`
`=(3)/(4)mv_(d)^(2)`
`therefore (3)/(4)mv_(d)^(2)=(1)/(2)mv^(2)`
or `v_(d)=sqrt((2)/(3))v`

Give the expression for the velocity of a sliding body on an inclined plane.

An object is placed on the surface of smooth inclined plane of inclination . It takes time to reach the bottom. If the same object is allowed to slide down the rough inclined plane of the same inclination, the time to reach the bottom is increased n times, where n gt 1 . The coefficient of friction for the plane is :

A block released from rest from the top of a smooth inclined plane of angle of inclinatione, reaches the bottom in time t_(1) The same block, released from rest from the top of another smooth inclined plane of angle of inclination theta_(2) reaches the bottom in time ty. If the two inclined planes have the same height, the relation between t_(1) and t_(2) is :

A solid sphere of mass m rolls down an inclined plane without slipping from rest at the top of an inclined plane.The linear speed of the sphere at the bottom of the inclined plane is v .The kinetic energy of the sphere at the bottom is
