For pure rolling motion there is “rolling without slipping”, so at
point P vp =0.• All points
instantaneously rotate about the point of contact between the object and the surface (P).
vp’ = 2 vcm

Rolling Motion:Rolling Motion: a combination of pure translation and pure rotation.
The Total Kinetic Energy of a Rolling Object is the sum of the rotational and the translational
kinetic energy.
K = ½ ICM ω2 + ½ MvCM2
Note
• Rolling is possible when there is friction between the surface and the rolling object.
• The frictional force provides the torque to rotate the object.
Ex: Accelerated Rolling MotionKi + Ui = Kf + U f
Mgh = ½ ICM ω2 + ½ MvCM2
vcm = ωR
There is no frictional work. Why not?
Does friction cause a displacement at its point of action?
Ex: #52
A bowling ball (on a horizontal surface) has a mass M, radius R, and a moment of inertia of (2/5)MR2 . If it starts from rest, how much work must be done on it to set it rolling without slipping at a linear speed v? Express the work in terms of M and v.
Ans: (7/10)Mv2
Ex: #54• A uniform solid disk and a uniform hoop are
placed side by side at the top of an incline of height h. If they are released from rest and roll without slipping, which object reaches the bottom first? Verify your answer by calculating their speeds when they reach the bottom in terms of h.
• Ans: The disk, vdisk =(4gh/3)1/2 , vring =(gh)1/2
