Questions  

A solid iron sphere A rolls down an inclined plane, while an identical hollow sphere B of same mass slides down the plane in a frictionless manner. At the bottom of the inclined plane, the total kinetic energy of sphere A is

a
less than that of B
b
equal to that of B
c
more than that of B
d
sometimes more and sometimes less

detailed solution

Correct option is B

In both the cases, the loss of gravitational potential energy and the resulting gain of ‘total kinetic energy’ is same.
