Given:
-height of ramp
-length of ramp
-mass of hoop
-inner and outer radius of hoop
-frictionless
Would my notes acurately predict the time in an ideal-frictionless situation (this is a physics 101 course):
Find Time:
Find α:
Using T=Iα
I=(1/2)M(R^2+R^2)
T=Mg(sinφ)R
Mg(sinφ)R=((1/2)M(R^2+R^2))α
(φ=slope of ramp)
(R's refer to inner
and outer radii)
find θ
d=θR
(d=top of ramp)
(R is outer hoop radius)
find time
θ=(1/2)αt^2
---------
Find ω_final
(ω_f)^2=(ω_i)^2+2αθ
Find final velocity
v_f=(ω_f)*R
(R is outer hoop radius)
