    Freezing of water inside a hollow sphere which is rolling

    Okay now I understand it quite well. Let us now initiate a discussion about the linear momentum.

    Freezing of water inside a hollow sphere which is rolling

    No force would produce torque about that. I think any axis passing through the point of contact should work fine.

    One which passes through both CM and point of contact. ..

    Freezing of water inside a hollow sphere which is rolling

    Axis might be one which is vertical, passing through CM and along the plane of paper. Then normal and Mg will have zero torque.

    Freezing of water inside a hollow sphere which is rolling

    Anyone who would like to add more about the angular momentum story..

    Freezing of water inside a hollow sphere which is rolling

    OH yeah.. I agree with that.. So with the centre of mass we can conserve angular momentum right...

    Freezing of water inside a hollow sphere which is rolling

    I didn't really get your statement. How can pure rolling have a effect on KE?

    Freezing of water inside a hollow sphere which is rolling

    Okay this should be the point of contact of the ball with ground.

    Freezing of water inside a hollow sphere which is rolling

    Oh sorry. That was a huge blunder from my part... I just considered that after freezing the angular speed and linear speed will be same as before (totally wrong) . If that would have been the case, angular momentum will be conserved from any point. Any more views about the topic? Thanks for...

    Please help me out.. This is screwing up my head.

    Freezing of water inside a hollow sphere which is rolling

    Homework Statement If we have a hollow ball completely filled with water which is rolling without slipping on a horizontal ground. If the water freezes which of the parameter will remain unchanged- angular speed, angular momentum, linear momentum, kinetic energy, total energy Homework...

    Undergrad How to Calculate Work for a Time Varying Force?

    Let us consider force as a function of time as F(t). We know, dP/dt = F(t) m dv/dt = F(t) m∫dv = ∫F⁽t⁾dt m⁽v₂-v₁) = θ (θ=∫F⁽t⁾dt with limits t₂ and t₁) Now, for a certain situation the initial velocity⁽v₁) and mass can be easily recorded. Also the time interval for which work...

    High School How Is the Coefficient of Restitution Linked to Conservation of Energy?

    The Coefficient of Restitution Is actually defined as such. It is actually the ratio of impact after and before collision. Since most of the times, we don't consider loss of mass of the colliding bodies we have only velocity as the parameter which will measure the impact of the collision...
