Questions  

In the figure, the velocities are in ground frame and the cylinder is performing pure rolling on the plank, velocity of point 'A' would be 

a
2vC
b
2vC+vP
c
2vC−vP
d
2vC−vP

detailed solution

Correct option is C

For pure rolling velocity of the point of contact has to be equal to the velocity of the surface.Let us say cylinder rolls with angular velocity ω.At point B,vC−ωr=vP⇒ωr=vC−vPAt point A,vA=vC+ωr=2vC−vP
