Homework Statement
I have a heavy ball on a piece of paper on the floor. The paper is grabbed and moved horizontally with acceleration a. What is the acceleration of the center of the ball? The ball is assumed to not slip with respect to the paper.
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I'm not really sure how the acceleration is supposed to interact with the ball. A thought I've had is to say that the ball doesn't translate but rotates with angular acceleration a/R since it doesn't slip.
