Consider a uniform solid sphere of radius r and mass m rolling without slipping. which form of its kinetic energy is larger, translational or rotational?

a. its translational kinetic energy is larger than its rotational kinetic energy.
b. its rotational kinetic energy is larger than its translational kinetic energy.
c. you need to know the speed of the sphere to tell.

The x-coordinate of a particle in curvilinear motion is given by x = 3.1t3 - 4.9t where x is in feet and t is in seconds. the y-component of acceleration in feet per second squared is given by ay = 2.3t. if the particle has y-components y = 0 and vy = 5.0 ft/sec when t = 0, find the magnitudes of the velocity v and acceleration a when t = 1.8 sec. sketch the path for the first 1.8 seconds of motion, and show the velocity and acceleration vectors for t = 1.8 sec. answers: v = ft/sec a = ft/sec2

Suppose a wheel with a tire mounted on it is rotating at the constant rate of 2.15 times a second. a tack is stuck in the tire at a distance of 0.373 m from the rotation axis. noting that for every rotation the tack travels one circumference (a) find the tack's tangential speed. (b) what is the tacks radial acceleration?
