Two children Ramesh (on path ARB ) and Sohan (on path ASB ), travel down slides of identical height h but different shapes as shown in the figure. Assuming they start down the frictionless slides at the same time with zero initial velocity, which of the following statements is true?

Question

Two children Ramesh (on path ARB ) and Sohan (on path ASB ), travel down slides of identical height h but different shapes as shown in the figure. Assuming they start down the frictionless slides at the same time with zero initial velocity, which of the following statements is true? <img class="img-fluid question-image" alt="Question" src="https://cdn.tardigrade.in/q/nta/p-9ry1xqls8wox.png" /> (A) Ramesh reaches the bottom first with the same average velocity as Sohan. (B) Ramesh reaches the bottom first with a larger average acceleration than Sohan. (C) Ramesh reaches the bottom first with the same average acceleration as Sohan. (D) They reach the bottom at the same time with the same average acceleration.

Ramesh takes lesser time to reach bottom as velocities of both of them are same at the bottom average acceleration of Ramesh is larger compared to Sohan.
