OpenStudy (yrelhan4):

i've got it. thank you!

OpenStudy (shane_b):

Did you get \[\frac{V_0}{3}\]?

OpenStudy (yrelhan4):

6vo/7..

OpenStudy (shane_b):

Nevermind....V0/3 is the translational velocity and the question asked for rotational. Just woke up and can't read :)

OpenStudy (yrelhan4):

my book says says 6vo/7. and no, the question asks for linear velocity.

OpenStudy (shane_b):

Yea, V0/3 would be the rotational velocity just as it starts purely rolling. I just misread what it was asking.

OpenStudy (shane_b):

My earlier post should have read: "V0/3 is the ROTATIONAL and the question asked for TRANSLATIONAL". Yea, I need coffee.

OpenStudy (yrelhan4):

haha. :)

OpenStudy (yrelhan4):

but wait.. if translational velocity when rolling starts is 6vo/7, rotational should be 6vo/(7R) no?

OpenStudy (shane_b):

You would think so...maybe it's a typo in my book. I haven't read this chapter in years so I'd have to read through it again.

OpenStudy (yrelhan4):

hmm. right. thank you.
