A solid sphere rolling on a rough horizontal surface with a linear speed v collides elastically with a fixed, smooth vertical wall. Find the speed of the sphere after it has began pure rolling in the backward direction.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
F f r = I α α = 
α α = 

after collision

v f = v-
……….. (i)
ω ω f = - ω ω + α α t= - ω ω +
.
or r ω ω f = - r ω ω +
t
or v f = - v +
……….. (ii)
From eq. (i) and (ii)
v f = - v +
(v – v f ) or v f =
v.
