Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A disc of mass 5 kg rolls without slipping down a slope of height 10 meters. Calculate its angular velocity at the bottom assuming it starts from rest.

💡 Hint: Relate potential energy at the top to kinetic energy at the bottom.

Challenge 2 Hard

A ball of radius r rolls with an angular velocity ω. If the ball's radius is doubled, what happens to the translational speed at the surface?

💡 Hint: Consider how radius affects linear speed.
