OBJECTIVE

To investigate the case of solid sphere relationships of mass moment of inertia,

angular acceleration and angular velocity of a solid sphere rolling down an inclined plane.

Note:
Repeat the above Experiment 3A using solid sphere instead of rolling
disc.
Moment of Inertia of Solid Sphere

Io =
