Ball here, Ball there

Classical Mechanics Level pending

A uniform ball of radius R \text{R} started from rest and descended a vertical distance h \text{h} while rolling without slipping down a ramp. Then after it hit the ground, the experiment is again conducted but now, ramp is replaced by rails d d distance apart.

Find the ratio ( v c m , r a m p v c m , r a i l s ) 2 \displaystyle {(\frac{{v}_{cm, ramp}}{{v}_{cm, rails}})}^{2} . If it can be written as a b \frac{a}{b} , give your answer as a + b a + b .

Details

  1. R = 3 m , d = 2 m , h = 10 m , g = 9.8 m s 2 R = 3 m, d = 2 m, h = 10 m, g = 9.8 m{s}^{-2}

  2. Friction and air resistance are not be considered.

  3. v c m , a {v}_{cm, a} means velocity of the center of mass when 'a' is used.


The answer is 57.
