A block and a ball have the same inertia and move with the same initial velocity across a floor and then encounter different ramps. The ramps are identical in every way except for the fact that there is enough friction for the ball to roll without slipping and the block slides without friction up the ramp. Which one makes it furthest up the ramp

Respuesta :

The ball rolling without slipping will make it furthest up the ramp because it has greater kinetic energy.

Conservation of energy

The height rolled by each object can be determined by applying the principle of conservation of energy.

The ball rolling without slipping will have additional rotational kinetic energy.

The block won't have additional rotational kinetic energy.

Total K.E ball > Total K.K block

ΔP.E = ΔK.E

Thus, the ball rolling without slipping will make it furthest up the ramp because it has greater kinetic energy.
