$A$ uniform solid cylinder of mass $M$ and radius $R$ rotates about a frictionless horizontal axle. Two similar masses $m$ are suspended with the help of two ropes wrapped around the cylinder. If the masses fall down through a distance $h$,the angular velocity of the cylinder will be

  • A
    $\frac{1}{R}\sqrt {8mgh/(M + 4m)} $
  • B
    $\frac{1}{R}\sqrt {8mgh/(M + m)} $
  • C
    $\frac{1}{R}\sqrt {mgh/(M + m)} $
  • D
    $\frac{1}{R}\sqrt {8mgh/(M + 2m)} $
