Problem
A solid cylinder of mass 1.2kg and radius 0.10m is released from rest at the top of a rough track that is 0.75m above a horizontal tabletop. The track is rough enough to prevent slipping. The cylinder rolls down, leaves the table horizontally, and lands on the floor 1.20m below the tabletop. Determine the horizontal distance from the edge of the table to the point where the cylinder lands. (Use g=9.8m/s2.)
