SSM A uniform wheel of mass 10.0 kg and radius 0.400 m is mounted rigidly on a massless axle through its center (Fig. 11-62). The radius of the axle is 0.200 m, and the rotational inertia of the wheel–axle combination about its central axis is 0.600 kg·m2. The wheel is initially at rest at the top of a surface that is inclined at angle θ = 30.0° with the horizontal; the axle rests on the surface while the wheel extends into a groove in the surface without touching the surface. Once released, the axle rolls down along the surface smoothly and without slipping. When the wheel–axle combination has moved down the surface by 2.00 m, what are (a) its rotational kinetic energy and (b) its translational kinetic energy?

There is a loss of 10% of moment of force between pedal and the rear wheel. The diameter of wheels is 70 cm, and the static friction coefficient between tyre and the mud is 0.3. The pedal angle is 25° from the vertical and has a length of 20 cm. The force exerted by the cyclist is vertical.
