A small massive sphere of radius (r) rests on top of a cylinder of radius (R). The sphere starts at rest and rolls without slipping from the top of the cylinder. What is the angle when the ball loses contact with the cylinder? What is the speed of the ball as it leaves the cylinder? What happens if instead there is a hollow ball rolling on the cylinder? Will it leave the cylinder at the same angle?
