JEE Advanced · Physics · 8. Rotational Motion

A solid sphere of mass 1 kg and radius 1 m rolls without slipping on a fixed inclined plane with an angle of inclination θ=30° from the horizontal. Two forces of magnitude 1 N each, parallel to the incline, act on the sphere, both at distance r=0.5 m from the center of the sphere, as shown in the figure. The acceleration of the sphere down the plane is m s-2. (Take g=10 m s-2)
If the numerical value has more than two decimal places, truncate/round-off the value to TWO decimal places.

  1. A 2.86
  2. B 2.8
  3. C 8.75
  4. D 8.56
