Question
A hollow sphere of radius R lies on a smooth horizontal surface. It is pulled by a horizontal force acting tangentially from the highest point. Find the distance travelled by the sphere during the time it makes one full rotation.

Answer


Taking moment about the centre of hollow sphere we will get
$\text{F}\times\text{R}=\frac{2}{3}\text{MR}^2\alpha$
$\Rightarrow\alpha=\frac{3\text{F}}{2\text{MR}}$
Again, $2\pi=\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)\alpha\text{t}^2$ $\Big(\text{From}\ \theta=\omega_0\text{t}+\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)\alpha\text{t}^2\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\text{t}^2=\frac{8\pi\text{MR}}{\text{3F}}$
$\Rightarrow\text{a}_{\text{c}}=\frac{\text{F}}{\text{m}}$
$\Rightarrow\text{X}=\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)\text{a}_{\text{c}}\text{t}^2=\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)=\frac{4\pi\text{R}}{3}$
