Q. 255. A spool with a thread wound on it is placed on an inclined smooth plane set at an angle to the horizontal. The free end of the thread is attached to the wall as shown in Fig. 1.61. The mass of the spool is , its moment of inertia relative to its own axis , the radius of the wound thread layer . Find the acceleration of the spool axis.
Rolling of a body on an inclined plane

Let us depict the forces and their points of application for the spool. Choosing the positive direction for and as shown in the fig.,

we apply and
and get
Solution Image
"Notice that if a point of a solid in plane motion is connected with a thread, the projection of velocity vector of the solid's point of contact along the length of the thread equals the velocity of the other end of the thread (if it is not slacked)"
Thus in our problem, but hence point is the instantaneous centre of rotation of zero velocity for the spool. Therefore and subsequently
Solving the equations simultaneously, we get
