Two uniform thin spherical shells are made from different materials. Both shells have a mass of $2 \,kg$ and an outer radius of $20 \,cm$. When they are both rolled down the same inclined plane without slipping,the times they take to cover equal distances differ by $1 \%$. If the thickness of the thinner shell is $0.5 \,cm$,the thickness of the other one is closest to ........... $\,cm$.

  • B
    $0.525$
  • C
    $1.0$
  • D
