A hollow sphere of radius 0.50 m, withrotational inertia I = 0.044kg m2 about a line through its center of mass, rollswithout slipping up a surface inclined at 37° to the horizontal. At a certain initialposition, the sphere's total kinetic energy is 100 J.
(a) How much of this initial kinetic energy isrotational?
wrong check mark J

(b) What is the speed of the center of mass of the sphere at theinitial position?
wrong check mark m/s
Now, the sphere moves 1.0 m up the incline from its initialposition.
(c) What is its total kinetic energy now?

(d) What is the speed of its center of mass now?
