I derived a formula for the acceleration of a ball of uniform mass rolling down a slope at some angle to the vertical, without slipping and did so in terms of kinetic energy and potential energy!
I was then posed the question if the same ball was to slide down the same surface but this time frictionless what would acceleration then be?
When I derived acceleration I didn't take into account friction or even fore for that matter so not sure if I am to answer in maths or using words?
