A sphere rolls on the surface with velocity . It encounters a smooth frictionless incline of height which it needs to climb. What will be the minimum velocity for which it will climb the incline?

Answer: (D)

Solution

On a frictionless incline there is no torque, so the spin kinetic energy stays constant and only the translational energy is converted to potential energy:
