    When a uniform solid sphere and a disc of the same mass and of the same radius rolls down an inclined smooth plane from rest to the same distance, then the ratio of the time taken by them is

    A)  15 : 14                                 

    B)  \[{{15}^{2}}:{{14}^{2}}\]

    C)  \[\sqrt{14}:\sqrt{15}\]                 

    D)         14 : 15

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Time of rolls down an inclined smooth plane from rest                 \[t=\frac{1}{\sin \theta }\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}\left( 1+\frac{{{K}^{2}}}{{{R}^{2}}} \right)}\] So, the ratio of the times taken by solid and disc \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{{{t}_{S}}}{{{t}_{D}}}=\sqrt{\frac{1+{{\left( \frac{{{K}^{2}}}{{{R}^{2}}} \right)}_{S}}}{1+{{\left( \frac{{{K}^{2}}}{{{R}^{2}}} \right)}_{D}}}}\]                      \[=\sqrt{\frac{1+\frac{2}{5}}{1+\frac{1}{2}}}=\sqrt{\frac{14}{15}}\]
