Three bodies - a ring, a solid cylinder and a solid sphere of same mass and radii roll down an inclined plane from the same height. Which of the three will reach the ground first?

Prove the result that the velocity v of translation of a rolling body (like a ring, disc, cylinder or sphere) at the bottom of an inclined plane of a height h is given by v^2=(2gh)/ (i+k^2^l R^3 Using dynamical consideration (i.e. by consideration of forces and torques). Note k is the radius of gyration of the body about its symmetry axis, and R is the radius of the body. The body starts from rest at the top of the plane.
