Rolling without slipping occurs when an object rolls along a surface without any sliding motion between them. The rotational and translational velocities are related such that they maintain constant contact with each other.

Rotational Motion: Rotational motion refers to the movement of an object around an axis or center point.
Friction: Friction is the force that opposes motion between two surfaces in contact. It plays a crucial role in rolling without slipping.
Torque is the rotational equivalent of force and causes objects to rotate. In rolling without slipping, torque helps maintain the relationship between rotational and translational velocities.
