$A$ rolling wheel of $12 \, kg$ is on an inclined plane at position $P$ and connected to a mass of $3 \, kg$ through a string of fixed length and a pulley as shown in the figure. Consider $PR$ as a friction-free surface. The velocity of the centre of mass of the wheel when it reaches the bottom $Q$ of the inclined plane $PQ$ will be $\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{xgh} \, m/s$. The value of $x$ is.............

Prove that the velocity $v$ of translation of a rolling body (like a ring,disc,cylinder,or sphere) at the bottom of an inclined plane of height $h$ is given by $v^{2} = \frac{2gh}{1 + k^{2}/R^{2}}$ using dynamical considerations (i.e.,by considering forces and torques). Note: $k$ is the radius of gyration of the body about its symmetry axis,and $R$ is the radius of the body. The body starts from rest at the top of the plane.
