All forces must add up to zero. See pictures below.
When scientists work together it helps them achieve their goals when they share different ideas with eachother
Answer:
Part a)

Part b)

Part c)
distance L is independent of the mass of the sphere
Explanation:
Part a)
As we know that rotational kinetic energy of the sphere is given as

so we will have

so we will have




Part b)
By mechanical energy conservation law we know that
Work done against gravity = initial kinetic energy of the sphere
So we will have



Part c)
by equation of energy conservation we know that

so here we can see that distance L is independent of the mass of the sphere
I wanna say its A . I could be wrong but im almost 100 percent sure that its A wood
