Question

Suppose a uniform solid sphere of mass M and radius R rolls without slipping down an inclined plane starting from rest. The linear velocity of the sphere at the bottom of the incline depends on?

Answer 1

Answer:

None of the mass or the radius of the sphere

Explanation:

When a uniform solid sphere of any given mass, say M and any given radius, say R, rolls without slipping downwards an inclined plane that starts from rest. The linear velocity of the sphere at about the bottom of the inclined happens not to depend on either of its mass or that of the radius of its sphere.
