The moment of inertia of a solid cylinder about its axis is $I$. It is allowed to roll down an incline without slipping. If its angular velocity at the bottom is $\omega$,then the total kinetic energy $(K.E.)$ of the cylinder will be:

  • A
    $I\omega^2$
  • B
    $\frac{3}{4}I\omega^2$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2}I\omega^2$
  • D
    $\frac{3}{2}I\omega^2$
