One solid sphere and one disc of the same radius are rolling down an inclined plane without slipping. One reaches the bottom earlier than the other due to:

  • A
    different radius of gyration
  • B
    different sizes
  • C
    different friction
  • D
    different moment of inertia

$A$ horizontal force $F$ is applied at the center of mass of a cylindrical object of mass $m$ and radius $R$,perpendicular to its axis as shown in the figure. The coefficient of friction between the object and the ground is $\mu$. The center of mass of the object has an acceleration $a$. The acceleration due to gravity is $g$. Given that the object rolls without slipping,which of the following statement$(s)$ is(are) correct?
$(A)$ For the same $F$,the value of $a$ does not depend on whether the cylinder is solid or hollow
$(B)$ For a solid cylinder,the maximum possible value of $a$ is $2 \mu g$
$(C)$ The magnitude of the frictional force on the object due to the ground is always $\mu m g$
$(D)$ For a thin-walled hollow cylinder,$a = \frac{F}{2m}$

Two uniform similar discs roll down two inclined planes of length $S$ and $2S$ respectively,as shown in the figure. The velocities of the two discs at the points $A$ and $B$ at the bottom of the inclined planes are related as:
