A solid cylinder (I_cylinder = frac{1}{2}MR^2) rolls without slipping down an inclined plane from rest as shown in the figure. It has mass M and radius R. What is its linear acceleration (in m/s^2) after travelling a distance of 10 m down the inclined plane with θ = 41.9°?

The cylinder shown in the figure, with mass M and radius R, has a radially dependent density. The cylinder starts from rest and rolls without slipping down an inclined plane of height H. At the bottom of the plane, its translational speed is sqrt(8gH/7). What is the rotational inertia of the cylinder?
