Q. A solid sphere and a hollow sphere of the same mass and radius are released from rest at the same height. Which one will have a greater translational speed when they reach the ground?
A.
Solid sphere
B.
Hollow sphere
C.
Both will have the same speed
D.
Depends on the mass
Solution
The solid sphere will have a greater translational speed because it has a smaller moment of inertia.
Q. A solid sphere of mass M and radius R is rolling without slipping on a horizontal surface. What is the expression for its total angular momentum about its center of mass?
A.
(2/5)MR^2ω
B.
MR^2ω
C.
MR^2
D.
0
Solution
Total angular momentum L = Iω, where I = (2/5)MR^2 for a solid sphere.
Q. A solid sphere of mass m and radius r rolls without slipping down an inclined plane of angle θ. What is the acceleration of the center of mass of the sphere?
A.
g sin(θ)
B.
g sin(θ)/2
C.
g sin(θ)/3
D.
g sin(θ)/4
Solution
The acceleration of the center of mass of a rolling object is given by a = g sin(θ) / (1 + k^2/r^2). For a solid sphere, k^2/r^2 = 2/5, thus a = g sin(θ) / (1 + 2/5) = g sin(θ) / (7/5) = (5/7)g sin(θ).
Q. A solid sphere of radius R rolls without slipping down an inclined plane of angle θ. What is the acceleration of the center of mass of the sphere?
A.
g sin(θ)
B.
g sin(θ)/2
C.
g sin(θ)/3
D.
g sin(θ)/4
Solution
The acceleration of the center of mass of a solid sphere rolling down an incline is given by a = g sin(θ) / (1 + (2/5)) = g sin(θ) / (7/5) = (5/7) g sin(θ).
Q. A solid sphere rolls down a hill without slipping. If the height of the hill is h, what is the speed of the sphere at the bottom of the hill?
A.
√(2gh)
B.
√(3gh)
C.
√(4gh)
D.
√(5gh)
Solution
Using conservation of energy, potential energy at the top (mgh) converts to kinetic energy (1/2 mv^2 + 1/2 Iω^2). For a solid sphere, I = (2/5)mr^2 and ω = v/r. Solving gives v = √(2gh).
Q. A solid sphere rolls down an inclined plane without slipping. What is the ratio of its translational kinetic energy to its total kinetic energy at the bottom?
A.
1:2
B.
2:3
C.
1:3
D.
1:1
Solution
The total kinetic energy is the sum of translational and rotational kinetic energy. For a solid sphere, the ratio of translational to total kinetic energy is 2:3.

Q. A solution has a density of 1.2 g/mL and contains 30 g of solute. What is the molarity if the molar mass of the solute is 60 g/mol?
A.
0.5 M
B.
1 M
C.
2 M
D.
1.5 M
Solution
Volume of solution = mass / density = 30 g / 1.2 g/mL = 25 mL = 0.025 L. Moles of solute = 30 g / 60 g/mol = 0.5 moles. Molarity = 0.5 moles / 0.025 L = 20 M.
Q. A solution is prepared by dissolving 50 g of glucose (C6H12O6) in 250 g of water. What is the mass percent of glucose in the solution? (Molar mass of glucose = 180 g/mol)
A.
20%
B.
15%
C.
25%
D.
10%
Solution
Mass percent = (mass of solute / (mass of solute + mass of solvent)) × 100 = (50 g / (50 g + 250 g)) × 100 = 20%.

C.
0.5 M
D.
0.25 M
Solution
Moles of NaCl = 58.5 g / 58.5 g/mol = 1 mole. Molarity = 1 mole / 1 L = 1 M.

A.
1 M
B.
2 M
C.
0.5 M
D.
0.1 M
Solution
Moles of NaCl = 58.5 g / 58.5 g/mol = 1 mole. Molarity = 1 mole / 1 L = 1 M.
