Finding the rotational kinetic energy


A solid cylinder of 1.6 kg (having radius = 0.15 m, length = 0.65 m) is free from rest at the top of a ramp and let to roll without slipping. The ramp is 0.90 m high and 5.0 m long.

i) If the cylinder arrives at the bottom of the ramp, determine its total kinetic energy?

Represent your answer by using two significant figures.

ii) If the cylinder arrives at the bottom of the ramp, determine its rotational kinetic energy?

Represent your answer by using two significant figures.

iii) If the cylinder arrives at the bottom of the ramp, determine its translational kinetic energy?
