explain pure rolling motion??

Toppling at each point on the surface where the body is moving, no sliding!

In a pure rolling motion, the point of contact with the surface has got velocity = 0 (istantaneusly) the force of friction does zero work, and the velocity is in absolute value \[V=\omega*r\] |dw:1397496935873:dw| So in a pure rolling mot. linear velocity, and angular velocity are linked by that relation, to explain in a intuitive way: the cilinder/sphere/disc does a complete rotation only after travelling a distance equal to the circumference. (sorry for my bad english...)
