Question: A solid sphere of mass m 1 = 1 . 0 k g and a hoop of mass m 2 = 2 . 0 k

A solid sphere of mass m1=1.0kg and a hoop of mass m2=2.0kg, and the same radius r=0.3 m are released simultaneously from heights h1 and h2, respectively, and roll without friction on a cylindrically-shaped surface, as shown in the figure. If the ratio of h1h2=23 then the two objects collide:
Select one:
a. closer to the release point of m1
b. closer to the release point of m2
c. in the middle
d. cannot determine (surface radius R is needed)
A solid sphere of mass m 1 = 1 . 0 k g and a hoop
