$A$ circular disc reaches from top to bottom of an inclined plane of length $l$. When it slips down the plane,it takes $t \ s$. When it rolls down the plane,it takes $\left(\frac{\alpha}{2}\right)^{1/2} t \ s$,where $\alpha$ is:

$A$ small ring is rolling without slipping on the circumference of a large bowl as shown in the figure. The ring is moving down at $P_{1}$,comes down to the lowest point $P_{2}$,and is climbing up at $P_{3}$. Let $v_{CM}$ denote the velocity of the centre of mass of the ring. Choose the correct statement regarding the frictional force on the ring.

$A$ cylinder rolls up an inclined plane to a certain height and then rolls down. (It does not slip during the entire motion.) What is the direction of the frictional force acting on the cylinder?

$A$ round uniform body of radius $R$,mass $M$,and moment of inertia $I$ rolls down (without slipping) an inclined plane making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. Then its acceleration is

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 ........... $\,cm$.
