An inclined plane makes an angle $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. $A$ solid sphere rolls down from the top of the inclined plane from rest without slipping. Its linear acceleration along the plane is equal to (where $g$ is acceleration due to gravity and $\sin 30^{\circ} = 0.5$):

  • A
    $\frac{5g}{14}$
  • B
    $\frac{5g}{4}$
  • C
    $\frac{2g}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{g}{3}$
