Two identical uniform discs roll without slipping on two different surfaces $AB$ and $CD$ (see figure) starting at $A$ and $C$ with linear speeds $v_1$ and $v_2$,respectively,and always remain in contact with the surfaces. If they reach $B$ and $D$ with the same linear speed and $v_1 = 3 \ m/s$,then $v_2$ in $m/s$ is $(g = 10 \ m/s^2)$.
