Q130 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2024 (23 May Shift 1) · Physics

One ring, one solid sphere and one solid cylinder are rolling down on same inclined plane starting from rest. The radius of all the thee are equal, The object reaches down with maximum velocity is

  • A
    Solid cylinder
  • Correct answer
    B
    Solid sphere
  • C
    Ring
  • D
    Solid sphere and Ring

Solution

For rolling on inclined plane, $\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{a}=\frac{\mathrm{g} \sin \theta}{1+\frac{\mathrm{K}^2}{\mathrm{R}^2}} \\ & \therefore \mathrm{a}_{\text {ring }}=\frac{\mathrm{g} \sin \theta}{1+1}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~g} \sin \theta=0.5 \mathrm{~g} \sin \theta \\ & \mathrm{a}_{\text {solid sphere }}=\frac{\mathrm{g} \sin \theta}{1+\frac{2}{5}}=\frac{5}{7} \mathrm{~g} \sin \theta=0.71 \mathrm{~g} \sin \theta \\ & \mathrm{a}_{\text {solid cylinder }}=\frac{\mathrm{g} \sin \theta}{1+\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{2}{3} \mathrm{~g} \sin \theta=0.66 \mathrm{~g} \sin \theta \end{aligned}$
Also, $\therefore \quad \mathrm{v}_{\text {solid sphere }}\gt\mathrm{v}_{\text {solid cylinder }}\gt\mathrm{v}_{\text {ring }}$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
