Rolling sphere down an incline ramp

[negation]

Are there any good sources to understand the physics behind a rolling sphere down an incline plane?

What specifically don't you understand?

There is always more to say!

What specifically don't you understand?

I ran through the slides and was overloaded with information. Not sure if it was the slides with information that was scattered but it was just a lot of information.

I was hoping there might be a good source from which I can weave the entire mathematical reasoning together in a systematic fashion rather than having to read through a slide with information scattered.

Just p. 69 - assuming you understand analytical mechanics.

Or if you want Newtonian mechanics, try this:

Or with pictures:


Or you can tell us what it is you know, and what you don't understand.
