newtonian mechanics - Rolling in smooth inclined plane



Can a body posses pure rolling in smooth inclined plane.In smooth inclined plane the centre of mass of body is accelerating.So to maintain the pure rolling there should be angular acceleration.But no one provides the torque because the only forces Gravity and Normal reaction passes through centre.

classical mechanics - Moment of a force about a given axis (Torque) - Scalar or vectorial?

I am studying Statics and saw that: The moment of a force about a given axis (or Torque) is defined by the equation: $M_X = (\vec r \times \...
