Satement-1: two cylinder one hollow (metal) and the other side (wood) with the same mass and identical dimensions are simultaneously allowed to roll wihtout slipping down an inclined plane from the same height. The hollow cylinder will reach the bottom of the inclined plane first.
Statement-2: By the principle of conservation of energy, the total kinetic energies of both the cylinder are identical when they reach the bottom of the incline.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`a=(g sin theta)/(1+ (I_(CM))/(mR^(2))), I_(CN)` of solid cylinder is less,
So it will have more acceleration and will take less time to reach the bottom.
