1

What is the condition for smooth rolling?

Smooth rolling occurs when the center of mass moves in a straight line and the object rotates around its center of mass without slipping.

New cards
2

What role does friction play in rolling motion?

Friction prevents slipping and produces rotation. Without friction, the object will slide instead of rolling.

New cards
3

Define torque in terms of force and distance.

Torque is the rotational effect of a force applied at a distance from the axis of rotation.

New cards
4

How is angular momentum (LLL) defined?

Angular momentum depends on the position vector, linear momentum, or rotational inertia and angular velocity.

New cards
5

Which gives the kinetic energy of an object rolling smoothly over a floor?

the sum of the translational kinetic energy and the rotational kinetic energy

New cards
6

Which describes the direction of a torque vector?

perpendicular to the plane formed by the position vector and the force vector

New cards
7

Which describes the direction of an angular momentum ?

perpendicular to the plane formed by the position vector and the momentum vector

New cards
8

How is torque related to angular momentum?

Torque is equal to the derivative of the angular momentum with respect to time.
