A solid sphere (\(A\)) of mass \(5m\) and a spherical shell (\(B\)) of mass \(m\), both having same radius, are placed on a rough surface. When a force of same magnitude is applied tangentially at the highest points of \(A\) and \(B\), they start rolling without slipping with an acceleration of \(a_A\) and \(a_B\), respectively. The ratio of \(a_A\) and \(a_B\) is __________.
