- Cylinder A is made of a uniform material.
- Cylinder B is made of a material such that its volume mass density \(\rho\) increases with radial distance \(r\) from the central axis according to the function \(\rho(r) = \beta r\), where \(\beta\) is a positive constant.
Both cylinders are placed at rest at the top of a rough incline of angle \(\theta\) and roll without slipping down the incline.
