MCQ
The ratio of the accelerations for a solid sphere (mass $m$ and radius $R$) rolling down an incline of angle $\theta$ without slipping and slipping down the incline without rolling is
  • $5:7$
  • B
    $2:3$
  • C
    $2:5$
  • D
    $7:5$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$5:7$
a
Acceleration of the solid sphere slipping down the incline without rolling is 

${a_{slipping}} = g\sin \theta \,\,\,\,\,\,\,...\left( i \right)$

Acceleration of the solid sphere rolling down the incline without slipping is

${a_{rolling}} = \frac{{g\sin \theta }}{{1 + \frac{{{k^2}}}{{{R^2}}}}} = \frac{{g\sin \theta }}{{1 + \frac{2}{5}}}$

$\left( {For\,solid\,sphere,\frac{{{k^2}}}{{{R^2}}} = \frac{2}{5}} \right)$

$= \frac{5}{7}g\sin \theta \,\,\,\,\,...\left( {ii} \right)$

Divide eqn. $(ii)$ by eqn. $(i)$, we get 

$\frac{{{a_{rolling}}}}{{{a_{slipping}}}} = \frac{5}{7}$
