actually theres a much simpler way to solve this sum
let the sphere be at angle @ form the vewrticla
then mgsin@-f=ma
and fr=Ia
solving it we get a as 5gsin@/7
now sin@=x/(r-R)
so
5gx/7(R-r)=w^2x
so we know w
nice and easy method (sorry dudes for being inactive boradband offf)















It will act like a simple pendulum whose bob is the ball and the point of suspension of the ball is the centre of the hemisphere...so the length of pendulum becomes R-r and hence time period is 2*pi*((R-r)/g)1/2
