MCQ
A solid sphere rolls without slipping on a rough surface and the centre of mass has a  constant speed $v_0$. If the mass of the sphere is $m$ and its radius is $R$, then find  the angular momentum of the sphere about the point of contact
  • A
    $\frac{3}{5}\,Mv_0R$
  • B
    $\frac{4}{5}\,Mv_0R$
  • $\frac{7}{5}\,Mv_0R$
  • D
    $\frac{7}{2}\,Mv_0R$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\frac{7}{5}\,Mv_0R$
c
$\therefore \quad \overrightarrow{\mathrm{L}}_{\mathrm{P}}=\overrightarrow{\mathrm{L}}_{\mathrm{cm}}+\overrightarrow{\mathrm{r}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{p}}_{\mathrm{cm}}=1_{\mathrm{cm}} \vec{\omega}+\overrightarrow{\mathrm{R}} \times \mathrm{m} \vec{v}_{\mathrm{cm}}$

here $v_{\mathrm{cm}}=v_0$

since sphere is in pure rolling motion hence $\omega=\mathrm{v}_{0} / \mathrm{R}$

$\Rightarrow \vec{\mathrm{L}}_{\mathrm{p}}=\left(\frac{2}{5} \mathrm{MR}^{2} \frac{\mathrm{v}_{0}}{\mathrm{R}}\right)(-\hat{\mathrm{k}})+\mathrm{M} \mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{o}} \mathrm{R}(-\hat{\mathrm{k}})$

$=\frac{7}{5} \mathrm{Mv}_{0} \mathrm{R}(-\hat{\mathrm{k}})$
