Example: A cylinder of mass M and radius R rolls down an incline of
angle θ with the horizontal. If the cylinder rolls without slipping, what is
its acceleration?
Newton's 2nd law for rotation:
Rolling without slipping:

(Without rotation the factor is 2.5)
Example: 1 m of cord is wound around a flywheel of radius, 0.25 m and
mass, 2 kg which is concentrated in the rim. The cord is pulled with a
force of 100 N and drives the wheel without slipping. What is the final
angular velocity of the wheel when the cord is exhausted? What is the
period?
d=1 m
F=100 N
m=1 kg
I=mR2
v=Rω
The pulling of the cord implies a fixed amount
of work done on this system. If we equate
this with the rotational energy of the flywheel,
then we can discover how fast it is turning.

Example: Two wheels with fixed hubs, each having a mass of 1 kg, start
from rest, and forces are applied as shown. Assume the hubs and
spokes are massless, so that the moment of inertia is I = mR2.
In order to impart identical angular accelerations, how large must F2 be?

Example: Two identical disks have a string coiled around them. The string
is pulled with a constant force F over a distance d. In one case, the disk
rolls without slipping on a table. In the other case, the disk rotates about
its axis (like a pulley). Compare the final angular speeds of the disks.
Same work (i.e., added energy) in both cases:
W = Fd
In case 2, this energy becomes
only rotational kinetic energy
In case 1, this energy becomes both
translational and rotational kinetic energy
Case 1
A. 1 > 2
B. 1 = 2
C. 1 < 2

Important! These expressions are only true for pure rotations (with a fixed
axis of rotation, or in the frame of reference where the axis is at rest).
Otherwise, the path by the point where the force is applied is not a circle.
Example: Work by friction
A uniform flywheel moving at 600 rpm comes to a stop after 1000 turns,
mostly due to air resistance. What is the average torque produced by air?
