Dynamics 2e 1591
Problem 7.90
The uniform ball of radius
and mass
m
is gently placed in the
bowl
B
with inner radius
R
and is released. The angle
measures
the position of the center of the ball at
G
with respect to a vertical
line through
O
. Assume that the system lies in the vertical plane.
Hint: In working the following problems, we recommend using
the r coordinate system shown.
Assuming that the ball rolls without slip, determine the acceler-
ation of the center of the ball at
G
, the angular acceleration of the
ball, and the force on the ball due to the bowl immediately after
the ball is released.

Force Laws. All forces have been accounted for on the FBD.
Kinematic Equations.
Because the center of the ball is in circular motion about point
O
, the acceleration
of point Gcan be written as
