A spherical shell of 1 kg mass and radius R is rolling with angular speed
on horizontal plane (as shown in figure). The magnitude of angular momentum of the shell about the origin O is
. The value of a will be :

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
L 0 = angular momentum of shell about O.
As shell is rolling
so V cm =
R



so a=5
