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.
