JEE MAIN - Physics (2019 - 8th April Evening Slot - No. 23)

A solid sphere and solid cylinder of identical radii approach an incline with the same linear velocity (see figure). Both roll without slipping all throughout. The two climb maximum heights hsph and hcyl on the incline. The ratio hsph/hcyl is given by :- JEE Main 2019 (Online) 8th April Evening Slot Physics - Rotational Motion Question 159 English

2/$$\sqrt5$$

Explanation

For solid sphere
$${1 \over 2}m{v^2} + {1 \over 2}.{2 \over 5}m{R^2}.{{{v^2}} \over {{R^2}}} = mg{h_{sph}}$$

For solid cylinder
$${1 \over 2}m{v^2} + {1 \over 2}.{1 \over 2}m{R^2}.{{{v^2}} \over {{R^2}}} = mg{h_{cyl}}$$

$$ \Rightarrow {{{h_{sph}}} \over {{h_{cyl}}}} = {{7/5} \over {3/2}} = {{14} \over {15}}$$
