You have three equal mass objects, that you release from rest at the top of an incline. Mass A is a disk, Mass B is a solid sphere, and Mass C is a hoop. Which object reaches the bottom of the incline last? Mass A - Disk Mass B - Solid Sphere Mass C - Hoop All 3 masses arrive at the bottom of the incline at the same time. It depends on the radius of the objects.
