Calculate the angular velocity of the cylinder, in rad s-1 , to 2d.p.

Question

A solid cylinder of mass 13 kg and radius 1.4 m is rolling without slipping along a horizontal road. The translational speed of the cylinder is 5.4 m s^-1.

Answer 1

If the cylinder is not slipping, then rω = v and ω = v/r . That's all there is to it.
