In the figure below, a ball of mass M and radius R rolls smoothly from rest down a ramp and onto a circular loop of radius 0.50 m. The initial height of the ball is h= 0.38 m. At the loop bottom, the magnitude of the normal force on the ball is 2.00Mg. The ball consists of an outer spherical shell (of a certain uniform density) that is glued to a central solid sphere (of a different uniform density). The rotational inertia of the ball can be expressed in the general form I = \beta MR^{2}, but \beta is not 0.4 as for a ball with a single uniform density. Determine \beta.
