A solid cylinder rolls down inclined plane faster than a hollow one

Показать описание
Both cylinders have equal mass and radius but different moments of inertia, so that the ratios of kinetic energy of forward and rotational movement are different for every cylinder.

The solid cylinder was faster than the cylinder with the hole

would have been kind of nice if the weight was the same... also, ends of the hollow cylinder closed so no aerodynamic difference.

the solid cylinder has more inertia, ( takes more force to stop it).
