Question
A solid sphere rolls down two different inclined planes of same height, but of different inclinations. In both cases
✓
Answer
In pure rolling, mechanical energy remains conserved. Therefore, when heights of inclines are equal, speed of sphere will be same in both the case. But as acceleration down the plane, $a \propto \sin \,\theta $ Therefore, acceleration and time of descent will be different
