Problem 8.133
At the instant shown, the disk
D
, which has mass
m
and radius of
gyration
kG
, is rolling without slip down the flat incline with angular
velocity
!0
. The disk is attached at its center to a wall by a linear
elastic spring of constant
k
. If, at the instant shown, the spring is
unstretched, determine the distance
d
down the incline that the disk
rolls before coming to a stop. Use
kD65 N=m
,
RD0:3
m,
mD
10 kg, kGD0:25 m, !0D60 rpm, and ✓D30ı.
Solution
We model
D
a a rigid body rolling without slipping on a flat surface
under the action of its own weight mg, the spring force Fs, and the
components
F
and
N
of the reaction force with the incline. Because
