A solid sphere (radius = R) rolls without slipping in a cylindrical vessel (radius = 5R). Find the angular frequency of small oscillations of the sphere in s –1 . Take R =
m and g = 10 m/s 2 . (axis of cylinder is fixed and horizontal).

( 5)
For pure rolling to take place,
v = R ω
ω ' = angular velocity of COM of sphere C about O
=
=
= 
∴
= 
⇒ α′ = 
or α =
for pure rolling
where, a =
= 
as, Ι =
mR 2
For small θ , sin θ θ , being restoring in nature.
α ' = 
∴ ω =
=
= 5
