    A billiard ball is struck and begins sliding across a table with an initial velocity. As it moves, its motion transitions from pure translation to rolling with slipping and eventually rolling without slipping due to friction. Expressions can be derived for the ball's linear and angular velocity as functions of time during the rolling with slipping phase. The time when rolling without slipping begins can also be determined. The ball's angular momentum about a fixed point on the table surface remains constant despite friction because angular momentum is conserved for a system experiencing only internal torques.

    A billiard ball has mass M, radius R, and moment of inertia about the center of mass Ic = 2 MR/5 The ball is struck by a cue stick along a horizontal line through the ball's center of mass so that the ball initially slides with a velocity vo as shown above. As the ball moves across the rough billiard table (coefficient of sliding friction k), its motion gradually changes from pure translation through rolling with slipping to rolling without slipping. a. Develop an expression for the linear velocity v of the center of the ball as a function of time while it is rolling with slipping. b. Develop an expression for the angular velocity of the ball as a function of time while it is rolling with slipping. c. Determine the time at which the ball begins to roll without slipping. d. When the ball is struck it acquires an angular momentum about the fixed point P on the surface of the table. During the subsequent motion the angular momentum about point P remains constant despite the frictional force. Explain why this is so.
