Explanation / Answer

Moment of inertia of hollow sphere ( 2/ 3 ) M R ^2 is greater than moment of inertia of the soild ball ( 2/ 5) M R ^ 2 So, angular speed of the hollow sphere is less than angularspeed of soild ball So, solid ball reaches the ground first So, answer is ball , hollow sphere , block
