Three bodies, a  thin ring, a solid cylinder and a solid sphere roll down the same inclined plane without slipping. They start from rest. The radii of the bodies are same. Which of the bodies reaches the ground with maximum velocity?

According to conservation of mechanical energy or        mgh = 12mv2(1+k2R2)           v2 = (2gh1+k2R2)It is independent of the mass of the rolling body.For a ring, k2 = R2     vring = 2gh1+1 = ghFor a solid cylinder, k2 = R22vcylinder= 2gh1+12 = 4gh3For a solid sphere, k2 = 25R2vsphere = 2gh1+25 = 10 gh7Among the given three bodies the solid sphere has the greatest and the ring has the least velocity at the bottom of the inclined plane.
