A lawn roller in the form of a thin-walled hollow cylinder of mass `M` is pulled horizotally with a constant horizontally force `F` applied by a handle attached to the axle. If it rolls without slipping. Find the acceleration and the friction forces.

Explanation

`I=MR^(2)`
for pure rolling to take place `a=Ralpha`
or `(F-f)/(M)=R((f.R)/(MR^(2)))=(f)/(M)`
`thereforef=(F)/(2)`
and `a=(F-f)/(M)=(F)/(2M)`
