NEETPhysicsRotational MotionMCQ+4 / −1
A solid cylinder and a hollow cylinder, both of the same mass and same external diameter are released from the same height at the same time on an inclined plane. Both roll down without slipping. Which one will reach the bottom first?
- ABoth together only when angle of inclination of plane is 45o
- BBoth together
- CHollow cylinder
- DSolid cylinder
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: D
Time taken to reach the bottom of inclined
plane.
Here, is length of incline plane
For solid cylinder
For hollow cylinder K2 = R2
Hence, solid cylinder will reach the bottom first.
