(a) Sphere A will reach the bottom of the incline first.
(b) Spbere B will reach the bottom of the incline first.
(c) Both Spheres will reach the bottom of the incline at the same time.
(d) Sphere A will have a higher angular acceleration than sphere B.
(c) Sphere A will have a higher linear acceleration than sphere B.
