Calculate total translational plus rotational energy for rolling without slipping. The page evaluates the displayed equation from your supplied values and presents both symbolic and substituted KaTeX working so the arithmetic can be checked.
K=(1/2)mv^2(1+beta)

Use boundary
The body rolls without slipping and beta accurately represents its mass distribution.
Use internally consistent units and retain extra precision when carrying the result into another calculation.
