Rolling without slipping force diagram

[BrianSauce]

This is the second part of a 2 part problem. The first part is:
A solid disc is rolling down a 30 degree incline from rest.
a. draw the force diagram for the disk.
b. write the equations for both translation and rotational motion
c. Find the linear acceleration of the center of mass.
d. If the radius of the disk is r, find the angular acceleration of the disk.
e. If the mass of the disc is m, what is the expression for the friction force?

I solved b. as: Translation {mgsin$\varphi$-fs = ma , N=mgcos$\varphi$} Rotation: fr=I$\alpha$

For c my answer was a=g/3

For d I got $\alpha$=2f/mr

And for e I got f= mg/6

Now part 2 says, "In the previous problem the disk started to roll from a height of h=2m with no initial velocity. Use the answers from part 1 to find:
a. The time to reach the bottom of the incline.
b. The velocity of its c.m. at the bottom of the incline.
c. The angular speed of the disk at the bottom of the incline if the radius of the disc is 25cm.

This is where I am stumped. I tried solving for the velocity by using Kinetic Energy, mgh = 1/2 I$\omega$^2 + 1/2mv^2

But I didn't get the correct answer. So I'm really lost, I tried Kinematic but just got lost not sure which equations to use.

Hi BrianSauce! Welcome to PF!

Now part 2 says, "In the previous problem the disk started to roll from a height of h=2m with no initial velocity. Use the answers from part 1 …

I tried solving for the velocity by using Kinetic Energy, mgh = 1/2 I$\omega$^2 + 1/2mv^2

That should work … show us your calculations.

However, why didn't you just use the acceleration from part 1, as the question tells you? ​

 

[BrianSauce]

My calculations are mgh=1/2(1/2mr^2)(v^2/r^2) + 1/2mv^2
gh=1/4v^2 + 1/2v^2
gh=3/4v^2
4gh/3 all under square root = v
However, that was not the correct velocity. And I'm not sure what to do with the acceleration because to find time I need vf which I don't have.

HiBrianSauce!

(just got up :zzz:)

4gh/3 all under square root = v

that's what i get also (with h = 2)

And I'm not sure what to do with the acceleration because to find time I need vf which I don't have.

but you can find the distance (along the slope), and use one of the other standard constant acceleration equations

My lab partner had helped me, he used the kinematic equation Vf = 1/2at^2

It completely slipped my mind. Thank you very much for the replies. :)

My lab partner had helped me, he used the kinematic equation Vf = 1/2at^2

that doesn't look right

there's s = v_it + 1/2 at² and v_f² = v_i² + 2as​

Whoops, I meant delta x = 1/2at^2, no vi because it starts from rest.

 

[tiny-tim]

yup!

Thanks again!
