Two identical balls one solid and other hollow are allowed to roll down an inclined plane, which one of them reached the base first?

A

Hollow ball

B

Solid ball

C

Both reach together

D

None reaches

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

For solid sphere `a=(5)/(7)gsintheta=0.7sintheta`
For hollow sphere `a=(3)/(5)gsintheta=0.6gsintheta`
Since acceleration of solid sphere is more than hollow sphere : solid sphere reaches the bottom first.
