A sphere of mass 50 gm and diameter 2 cm rolls without slipping with a velocfty of 5 cm/s. Calculate the total energy.

Explanation

To calculate the total energy of a rolling sphere, we need to consider both its translational and rotational kinetic energy. Here’s a step-by-step solution:

### Step 1: Identify the given values
- Mass of the sphere, \( m = 50 \, \text{g} = 0.05 \, \text{kg} \)
- Diameter of the sphere, \( d = 2 \, \text{cm} \) (which gives a radius \( r = \frac{d}{2} = 1 \, \text{cm} = 0.01 \, \text{m} \))
- Velocity of the sphere, \( v = 5 \, \text{cm/s} = 0.05 \, \text{m/s} \)

### Step 2: Calculate the translational kinetic energy
