A hollow, spherical shell with mass 2.00 kg rolls without slipping down a 38.0slope. (a) Find the acceleration, the friction force, and the minimum coefficient of friction needed to prevent slipping. (b) How would you answers to part (a) change if the mass were doubled to 4.00 kg?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The acceleration is, a=3.65m/s2.

The friction force is, F=4.86N.

The coefficient of frictions is, =0.31.

(b) The acceleration a wouldn鈥檛 be affected.

The friction force will be doubled

The minimum coefficient of friction wouldn鈥檛 change.

Step by step solution

01

(a)To find the acceleration, friction force and the coefficient of friction

We wills start with writing equilibrium equations for X and Y axes.

For Y-axis: mgcos=N1

We can鈥檛 write equilibrium equations for X axis, because it is not static.

Therefore, the Newton鈥檚 Second Law is given by,

ma=mgsin-F2, where,

F=smgcos, where sis the coefficient of static friction.

The Newton鈥檚 Second Law for rotational motion is,

FR=23mR23,

where =aR, is an angular acceleration and R is the radius.

Thus, equation 3becomes,

FR=23mR2aRF=23ma4

Using this in 2, we get,

ma=mgsin-23maa=gsin-23a1+23a=gsin

a=35gsin

a=359.80sin38a=359.800.62a=3.65,m/s2

Hence, the acceleration is,a=3.65m/s2.

Substituting this value in 4, we get,

F=232.003.65F=4.86N

Hence, the friction force is, F=4.86N.

Since this is without slipping, we have to justify this. In order to find the minimum coefficient of friction that is need to prevent slipping, we have,

F=NF=mgcos=Fmgcos=4.8629.800.79=0.31

The coefficient of frictions is, =0.31.

02

(b)To explain the change in the quantities in part (a) on doubling mass

If the mass would be doubled, the acceleration a wouldn鈥檛 be affected since from part (a) it doesn鈥檛 depends on mass. But the friction force will be doubled as it depends on mass directly. Doubling of mass wouldn鈥檛 change the minimum coefficient of friction because it doesn鈥檛 depend on mass.
