$A$ small ring is rolling without slipping on the circumference of a large bowl as shown in the figure. The ring is moving down at $P_{1}$,comes down to the lowest point $P_{2}$,and is climbing up at $P_{3}$. Let $v_{CM}$ denote the velocity of the centre of mass of the ring. Choose the correct statement regarding the frictional force on the ring.

  • A
    It is opposite to $v_{CM}$ at the points $P_{1}, P_{2}$ and $P_{3}$.
  • B
    It is opposite to $v_{CM}$ at $P_{1}$ and in the same direction as $v_{CM}$ at $P_{3}$.
  • C
    It is in the same direction as $v_{CM}$ at $P_{1}$ and opposite to $v_{CM}$ at $P_{3}$.
  • D
    It is zero at the points $P_{1}, P_{2}$ and $P_{3}$.

$A$ ring,a solid sphere,and a disc are rolled down an inclined plane from the same height. The order in which they reach the bottom is:

An inclined plane makes an angle $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. $A$ solid sphere rolling down an inclined plane from rest without slipping has a linear acceleration (where $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity and $\sin 30^{\circ} = 0.5$).

$A$ solid sphere of mass $2 \,kg$ rolls on a smooth horizontal surface at $10 \,m/s$. It then rolls up a smooth inclined plane of inclination $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. The height attained by the sphere before it stops is [take $g=10 \,m/s^2$].

$A$ rigid body of mass $M$ and radius $R$ rolls without slipping on an inclined plane of inclination $\theta$, under gravity. Match the type of body in Column-$I$ with the magnitude of the force of friction in Column-$II$.
