A solid wheel (I=1/2MR2) rolls down an incline starting from rest. The incline makes an angle of 15 degrees with the ground. R=0.5 m.M=.25 kg. The length of the incline plane is 12.0 m. a) Draw a schematic with vectors showing oll the forces acting on the wheel. b) Write an equation for the net translational force ma parallel to the plane, where a is the acceleration. c) Write an equation for the net rotational torque, I α. d) Determine the acceleration of the center of mass (a) in m/s2. e) Determine the traction (the in-plane force of the plane on the wheel). f) Determine the final total kinetic energy of the wheel as it rolls from the top to the bottom of the incline starting from rest.
