Rolling motion
Question

A ring of radius R is rotating with an angular speed ω0 about a horizontal axis. It is placed on a rough horizontal table. The coefficient of kinetic friction is μk. The time after which it starts rolling is

Difficult
Solution

Acceleration produced in the centre of mass due to friction

a = fM = μkMgM = μkg

where M is the mass of the ring ------(i)

Angular retardation produced by the torque due to friction

α = τI= fRI= μkMgRI------(ii)

As v = u+at

v = 0 + μk gt (u = 0)     (Using (i))

As ω = ω0+αt

ω = ωo-μKMgR It      (Using (ii))

For rolling without slipping

v = Rω

vR = ωo-μkMgRIt

μkgtR = ωo-μkMgRIt     μkgtR[1+MR2I] = ω0

μkgtR = ωo1+MR2It = 0μkg(1+MR2I)

 t = oμkg(1+MR2MR2) = 02μkg
