Accepted Answer

$$I = mR^2$

Question 3

A solid cylinder and a solid sphere, both with the same mass and radius, are released from rest at the top of an incline. Which one reaches the bottom first and why?

Accepted Answer

The solid sphere, because it has a smaller moment of inertia.

Question 4

What is the moment of inertia of a solid disk of mass $$m$$ and radius $$R$$ about its central axis?

Accepted Answer

$$I = \frac{1}{2}mR^2$

Question 5

A thin rod of length $$L$$ and mass $$m$$ rotates about an axis through one end perpendicular to its length. What is its moment of inertia?

Accepted Answer

$$I = \frac{1}{3}mL^2$

Question 6

A hollow cylinder and a solid cylinder, both with mass $$m$$ and radius $$R$$, are rolling without slipping. Which has the greater rotational kinetic energy for the same linear speed $$v$$?

Accepted Answer

The hollow cylinder, because its moment of inertia is larger.

Question 7

If a solid sphere and a thin hoop, both with mass $$m$$ and radius $$R$$, are spun with the same angular velocity $$\omega$$, which has the greater rotational kinetic energy?

Accepted Answer

The thin hoop, because its moment of inertia is larger.

Question 8
