Correct answer: A

Solid sphere reaches the bottom first because for solid cylinder K2R2=12{{{K^2}} \over {{R^2}}} = {1 \over 2}R2K2​=21​, and for hollow cylinder K2R2=1{{{K^2}} \over {{R^2}}} = 1R2K2​=1

Acceleration down the inclined plane ∝1K2R2 \propto {1 \over {{{{K^2}} \over {{R^2}}}}}∝R2K2​1​

Solid cylinder has greater acceleration, so it reaches the bottom first.
