A solid iron sphere `A` rolls down an inclined plane. While an identical hollow sphere `B` of same mass sides down the plane in a frictionless manner. At the bottom of the inclined plane, the total kinetic energy of sphere `A` is.

A

less than that of `B`

B

equal to that of `B`

C

more than that of `B`

D

Sometimes more and sometimes less

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

In both the cases the loss of gravitational potential energy and the resulting gain total kinetic energy is same.
