NEET 2018 Physics Rotational Motion MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11

A solid sphere is in rolling motion. In rolling motion, a body possesses translational kinetic energy (Kₜ) as well as rotational kinetic energy (Kᵣ) simultaneously. The ratio Kₜ : (Kₜ + Kᵣ) for the sphere is

A

7:10

B

5:7

C

10:7

D

2:5

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

For a solid sphere, the moment of inertia and the relationship between translational and rotational motion determine the ratio of kinetic energies.
