Two small blocks slide without losing contact with the surface along two frictionless tracks 1 & 2, starting at the same time with same initial velocity v. Track 1 is perfectly horizontal while track 2 has a dip in the middle as shown in the figure. Which body will reach the finish line first?

In the figure shown, a ring A is initially rolling without sliding with a velocity v on the horizontal surface of the body B (of same mass as A). All surfaces are smooth. B has no initial velocity what will be the maximum height reached by A on B.
