Jan 9, 2022 at 20:01 | comment | added | Martin CR | is the cylinder rotating at a constant rate? If so, unless I've misunderstood, I would say that that the tangential component of 'f' would be zero | |
Jan 9, 2022 at 19:52 | comment | added | sonod4 | I'm assuming a cylinder rolling without slipping. Btw the vector product should be Rf since they're perpendicular, and f can't be 0 since otherwise the motion would be a cylinder sliding with no rolling. | |

Jan 9, 2022 at 19:47 | comment | added | Martin CR | Or were you considering the initial state in which the cylinder has an initial linear velocity but no rotation? | |
Jan 9, 2022 at 19:45 | comment | added | Martin CR | It seems to me that the acceleration of the contact point on the cylinder (due to its rotation) is radial, whereas your force vector 'f' is tangential; so the vector product is zero - as indeed is the magnitude of 'f'. | |
