Question
Two wheels initially at rest roll the same distance down an inclined plane without slipping. Wheel B has twice the radius but the same mass as wheel A. All the mass is concentrated at their rims so that their moments of inertias are I = mR2.
1. Which has more translational Kinetic Energy when it reaches the bottom of the incline?
2. Which has the higher speed when it reaches the bottom of the incline?
Explanation / Answer
Their Translational Kinetic Energies are the same
speed are same
