JEE MAIN - Physics (2021 - 16th March Evening Shift - No. 17)
A solid disc of radius 'a' and mass 'm' rolls down without slipping on an inclined plane making an angle $$\theta$$ with the horizontal. The acceleration of the disc will be $${2 \over b}$$g sin$$\theta$$ where b is ____________. (Round off to the Nearest Integer) (g = acceleration due to gravity, $$\theta$$ = angle as shown in figure)

Answer
3
Explanation
We know that, on an inclined plane
Acceleration, $$a = {{g\sin \theta } \over {1 + {I \over {m{R^2}}}}}$$
$$ \Rightarrow a = {{g\sin \theta } \over {1 + {1 \over 2}}}$$ [$$\because$$ For disc, $$I = {{m{R^2}} \over 2}$$]
$$ \Rightarrow a = {2 \over 3}g\sin \theta $$ ....... (i)
As per question, acceleration of the disc will be $${2 \over b}g\sin \theta $$.
Comparing it with Eq. (i), we get
$$b = 3$$
