As we have learned

Rolling of a body on an inclined plane -

a= \frac{g\sin \Theta }{1+\frac{K^{2}}{R^{2}}}

f= \frac{mg\sin \Theta }{1+\frac{R^{2}}{K^{2}}}

- wherein

K=Radius of gyration

\Theta = Angle of inclination

 

 

 Acceleration along inclined plane 

a = \frac{g \sin \theta }{1+ \frac{Kc^2m}{R^2}}

FOr sphere 

Kc^2m = 2/5 R^2 \Rightarrow a_l = \frac{g \sin \theta }{1+ 2/5 }

 

a_s = 5 /4 g \sin \theta

For cylinder 

Kc^2m = 1/2 R^2 \Rightarrow a_c = \frac{g \sin \theta }{1+1/2}

a_c = 2/3 g \sin \theta _c

a_s = a_c \Rightarrow 5/7 (g \sin \theta _s) = 2/3 (g \sin \theta _c )

\frac{\sin \theta _c}{\sin \theta _s}= 15/14

 

 

 

 


Option 1)

\sqrt{\frac{8}{7}}

Option 2)

\sqrt{\frac{15}{14}}

Option 3)

\frac{8}{7}

Option 4)

\frac{15}{14}
