A wheeled cart (frictionless), a solid cylinder of radius r, a solid sphere of radius r, and a hollow cylinder of radius r are all allowed to roll down an incline. Derive a general relationship for the linear acceleration of each object depending on the angle of the ramp and the rotational inertia. You may assume that the frictional force is small enough that it is only causing rotation in each case.
