Two uniform thin spherical shells are made from different materials. Both shells have a mass of $2 \,kg$ and an outer radius of $20 \,cm$. When they are both rolled down the same inclined plane without slipping,the times they take to cover equal distances differ by $1 \%$. If the thickness of the thinner shell is $0.5 \,cm$,the thickness of the other one is closest to ........... $\,cm$.

$A$ hollow sphere of mass $m$ filled with a non-viscous liquid of same mass $m$ is released on a slope inclined at angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. The friction between the sphere and the slope is sufficient to prevent sliding,and frictional forces between the inner surface of the sphere and the liquid are negligible. After descending a certain height,the ratio of translational and rotational kinetic energies is found to be $x:y$. Find the numerical value of the expression $(x+y)_{min}$.
