APFIVE Energy Conservation of a Rolling Sphere
A solid sphere of mass M and radius R rolls without slipping along a horizontal surface with linear velocity v. It then encounters and rolls up a frictionless incline (with no further rolling, only sliding as it ascends). At what height h will the sphere momentarily come to rest?
A
h = 7v²/10g
B
h = 3v²/5g
C
h = 5v²/7g
D
h = v²/2g
