Q7.18 A solid sphere rolls down two different inclined planes of the same heights but
different angles of inclination.
(b) Will it take longer to roll down one plane than the other?
Let us assume the angle of inclination to be and .
And the acceleration of the sphere will be and respectively.
Thus (since )
Since their acceleration are different so the time taken to roll down the inclined plane will be different in both the cases.
