Question:medium
A hollow sphere and a solid sphere, of equal mass and equal radii roll down without slipping on an inclined plane. If the torques experienced are \( \tau_H \) and \( \tau_S \), then (A) \( \tau_H < \tau_S \)
A hollow sphere and a solid sphere, of equal mass and equal radii roll down without slipping on an inclined plane. If the torques experienced are \( \tau_H \) and \( \tau_S \), then (A) \( \tau_H < \tau_S \)
Show Hint
Higher moment of inertia ⇒ higher torque requirement.

- \( \tau_H > \tau_S \)
- \( \tau_H = \tau_S \)
- \( \tau_H = 0 \)
- \( \tau_S = 0 \)
Show Solution
The Correct Option is B
