AIPMT PRELIMS 2003 Physics Energy MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11
A ball rolls without slipping. The radius of gyration of the ball about an axis passing through its centre of mass is K. If radius of the ball be R, then the fraction of total energy associated with its rotational energy will be :
A
(K² + R²)/R²
B
K²/R²
C
K²/(K² + R²)
D
R²/(K² + R²)
Correct Answer
Option C
Detailed Explanation
The rotational energy fraction is given by Iω²/(Iω² + 1/2 mv²), where I is the moment of inertia.
