Torque on a System with Constant Acceleration

An electric motor drives a system with a moment of inertia $I = 50 \text{ kg} \cdot \text{m}^2$ in fixed-axis rotation. The system starts from rest and, with uniform acceleration, reaches a rotational speed of $f = 2 \text{ r/s}$ in $t = 0.5 \text{ s}$.

Find the torque exerted by the motor on the system.

Ball rolls down slope without slipping

A ball of radius $r$ and mass $m$ rolls down a slope with incline angle $\theta$ with slipping. The initial verticle height of the ball is $h$ from the bottom of the slope.

  1. Can this happen on the frictionless surface. If not what is minimum static friction coefficient? And what is the work done by the friction?
  2. What is the final speed $v$ of the ball, and how long does it take to get to the bottom? Solve it in two ways: kinemetics and energy conservation.
  3. Compare the final speed for a ball, ring and a disk.
