Two cylinders made of the same material roll down a plane inclined at an angle ? with the horizontal. Each travels the same distance. The radius of cylinder B is twice the radius of cylinder A. In what order do they reach the bottom?
A. A reaches the bottom first because it has the greater acceleration.
B. A reaches the bottom first because it has a smaller rotatinal inertia.
C. B reaches the bottom first because is experiences a larger torque.
D. B reaches the bottom first because it travels a larger distance in one rotation.
E. They both reach the bottom at the same time, because each has the same linear acceleration.
Answer: E
