In the figure shown mass of both, the spherical body and block is m. Moment of inertia of the spherical body about centre of mass is 2mR2. The spherical body rolls on the horizontal surface. There is no slipping at any surfaces in contact. The ratio of kinetic energy of the spherical body to that of block is

Detailed Solution
Let v be the linear velocity of centre of mass of the spherical body and ω its angular velocity about centre of mass. Thenω=v2RKE of spherical body K1=12mv2+12Iω2K1=12mv2+12(2mR2)v24R2=34mv2 …(i)Speed of the block will bev′=(ω)(3R)=3Rω=(3R)v2R=32v∴KE of block K2=12mv2=12m32v2=98mv2 …(ii)From equations (i) and (ii), K1K2=23
