$A$ uniform spherical object of mass $M$ and radius $R$ has a moment of inertia $I$. It rolls down an inclined plane of angle $\theta$ without slipping. What is its acceleration?

  • A
    $\frac{g \sin \theta}{1 + I/MR^2}$
  • B
    $\frac{g \sin \theta}{1 + MR^2/I}$
  • C
    $\frac{g \sin \theta}{1 - I/MR^2}$
  • D
    $\frac{g \sin \theta}{1 - MR^2/I}$

$A$ thick-walled hollow sphere has outside radius $R_0$. It rolls down an incline without slipping and its speed at the bottom is $v_0$. Now the incline is waxed,so that it is practically frictionless and the sphere is observed to slide down (without any rolling). Its speed at the bottom is observed to be $5v_0/4$. The radius of gyration of the hollow sphere about an axis through its centre is
