A uniform cylinder attached to a horizontal spring rolling without slipping.
A uniform solid cylinder of mass \(M\) and radius \(R\) is attached at its central axle to an ideal horizontal spring of spring constant \(k\). The cylinder rolls without slipping on a horizontal surface as it oscillates in simple harmonic motion. In terms of the given quantities and fundamental constants, what is the period of oscillation of the cylinder?
