A wheel of a bullock cart is rolling on a level road as shown in the figure below. If its linear speed is in the direction shown, which one of the following options is correct (P and Q are any highest and lowest points on the wheel respectively)? [2024]
[IMAGE 71]
Point P moves slower than point Q.
Point P moves faster than point Q.
Both the points P and Q move with equal speed.
Point P has zero speed.

For pure rolling
Given,
...(i)
Net velocity is the vector sum of translational and rotational velocity and is the angle between translational and rotational velocity.
...(i)
For point Q,
...(ii)
Now for point P,
Using eq. (i), we have
Using eq. (i), we have
...(iii)
So, it is clear from equation (ii) and (iii) that point P moves faster than point Q.

A disc and a sphere of same radius but different masses roll off on two inclined planes of the same altitude and length. Which one of the two objects gets to the bottom of the plane first? [2016]
Both reach at the same time

Time taken by the body to reach the bottom when it rolls down on an inclined plane without slipping is given by
Hence, the sphere gets to the bottom first.
