Multiple Choice
Two cylinders made of the same material roll down a plane inclined at an angle θ with the horizontal. Each travels the same distance. The radius of cylinder B is twice the radius of cylinder A. In what order do they reach the bottom?
A) A reaches the bottom first because it has the greater acceleration.
B) A reaches the bottom first because it has a smaller rotatinal inertia.
C) B reaches the bottom first because is experiences a larger torque.
D) B reaches the bottom first because it travels a larger distance in one rotation.
E) They both reach the bottom at the same time, because each has the same linear acceleration.
