A uniform solid sphere having mass M = 85.0 g and a radius R = 0.70 m rolls on a horizontal surface and then rolls up an incline at an angle of 60.0º. At the bottom of the incline, the sphere's center of mass has a translational speed of 5.8 m/s. If the frictional losses are negligible, how far does the sphere travel up along the incline?
