A thick walled hollow sphere has outer radius \[R\]. It rolls down an inclined plane without slipping and its speed at the bottom is\[v\]. If the inclined plane is frictionless and the sphere slides down without rolling, its speed at the bottom is \[5v/4\]. What is the radius of gyration of the sphere?

A. \[\frac{R}{\sqrt{2}}\]                
B. \[\frac{R}{2}\]
C. \[\frac{3R}{4}\]           
D. \[\frac{\sqrt{3}R}{4}\]
