$A$ solid sphere and a solid cylinder of identical radii approach an incline with the same linear velocity (see figure). Both roll without slipping throughout the motion. The two climb maximum heights $h_{sph}$ and $h_{cyl}$ on the incline. The ratio $\frac{h_{sph}}{h_{cyl}}$ is given by

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $\frac{4}{5}$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}$
  • D
    $\frac{14}{15}$

$A$ ring and a disc are initially at rest,side by side,at the top of an inclined plane which makes an angle $60^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. They start to roll without slipping at the same instant of time along the shortest path. If the time difference between their reaching the ground is $(2-\sqrt{3}) / \sqrt{10} \ s$,then the height of the top of the inclined plane,in metres,is. . . . . . . . Take $g=10 \ m \ s^{-2}$.
