Accepted Answer

$$\omega = \$$omega_0$$ + \alpha t$$

Question 4

A solid cylinder and a hollow cylinder of equal mass and radius roll down an incline without slipping. Which reaches the bottom first and why?

Accepted Answer

The solid cylinder, because it has less rotational inertia.

Question 5

Which of the following best describes torque?

Accepted Answer

Torque is the product of force and the perpendicular distance from the axis of rotation.
