If I push a cylinder along a surface with friction then am I right in saying that it would almost instantly start a pure rolling motion with a combination of translational and rotational kinetic energy?
Or would it start initially with pure translational motion and gradually accelerate rotationally to a pure rolling motion over time?
I am stuggling to prove with equations either way could someone help with this?
