A sphere of mass M and radius R is not necessarily solid or hollow. It has moment of inertia I= cMR2. As shown in the figure, the sphere starts from rest and rolls without slipping down a ramp from height H. It then moves back up the other side, but now with no friction at all between the sphere and the ramp. What height does the sphere reach?
