$A$ cylinder and a ring of same mass $M$ and radius $R$ are placed on the top of a rough inclined plane of inclination $\theta$. Both are released simultaneously from the same height $h$. Choose the correct statement$(s)$ related to the motion of each body.

Two uniform thin spherical shells are made from different materials. Both shells have a mass of $2 \,kg$ and an outer radius of $20 \,cm$. When they are both rolled down the same inclined plane without slipping,the times they take to cover equal distances differ by $1 \%$. If the thickness of the thinner shell is $0.5 \,cm$,the thickness of the other one is closest to ........... $\,cm$.
