I apologize if this question has been answered before, but I did not find the explanation that I needed.
If a torque is applied to a wheel situated on a frictional surface, what forces cause the wheel to roll?
I know that if P is the contact point, the static frictional force counteracts the torque, making P stationary with respect to the surface.
What are the forces that cause the translation motion and how can I compute them?
Thank you.
