A homogeneous solid cylindrical roller of radius \(R\) and mass \(M\) is pulled on a cricket pitch by a horizontal force. Assuming rolling without slipping, angular acceleration of the cylinder is

  1. A \(\frac{{3F}}{{2mR}}\)
  2. B \(\frac{{F}}{{3mR}}\)
  3. C \(\frac{{F}}{{2mR}}\)
  4. D \(\frac{{2F}}{{3mR}}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\frac{{2F}}{{3mR}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(F -f = ma\) \(fR = \frac{1}{2}\,m{R^2}\alpha \) \(a = \alpha R\) \(\alpha=\frac{{2F}}{{3mR}}\)
