Problem
A 1.5kg solid sphere and an identical solid cylinder (same mass and radius 0.20m) are released from rest at the top of an incline that has a vertical height of 2.0m. Both objects roll without slipping. Determine the translational speed of (i) the sphere and (ii) the cylinder at the bottom of the incline, and identify which object moves faster.
