6.System of Particles and Rotational Motion
hard
A solid sphere rolls without slipping and presses a spring of spring constant $k$ as shown in figure. Then, the maximum compression in the spring will be
A
$v\sqrt {\frac{{2M}}{{3k}}} $
B
$v\sqrt {\frac{{2M}}{{5k}}} $
C
$v\sqrt {\frac{{5k}}{{7M}}} $
D
$v\sqrt {\frac{{7M}}{{5k}}} $
Solution
Total $KE$ of sphere
$=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{Mv}^{2}\left(1+\frac{\mathrm{k}^{2}}{\mathrm{R}^{2}}\right)=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{Mv}^{2}\left(1+\frac{2}{5}\right)$
$=\frac{7}{10} \mathrm{Mv}^{2}$
Which is utilised in compression in the spring.
So $\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{kx}_{\mathrm{m}}^{2}=\frac{7}{10} \mathrm{Mv}^{2} \Rightarrow \mathrm{x}_{\mathrm{m}}=\mathrm{v} \sqrt{\frac{7 \mathrm{M}}{5 \mathrm{k}}}$
