The correct answer is: 203 m s-1

Potential energy of cylinder at top position

U=mgAB

=2×101.sin30°  sin30°=ABBCAB=1sin30°

=10 J

If v is the linear speed of cylinder when it reaches at bottom, then at bottom, total potential energy of cylinder is converted into kinetic energy,

i.e. K=U

12Iω2+12mv2=10

12·mr22·v2r2+12mv2=10ω=vr

  34mv2=10

v=403m=403×2=203  m s-1
