A uniform heavy solid hemisphere of radius a is held at rest with its base vertical and its curved surface in contact with a horizontal plane. If the hemisphere is released when the plane is rough enough to prevent slipping, show that the angle 8 that the base makes with the horizontal at time I is such that (do/di)2 = 158 cos0/{a(28 – 15 cos 0)} .
