Two wooden disc , one with radius 2 cm and mass 1 kg and the other with radius 4 cm and mass 2 kg , are welded together coaxially and mounted on a frictionless axis through their common centre. Alight string is wrapped around the edge of the smaller disc, and a 3 kg block is suspended from the free end of the string.What is the acceleration of the block after it is released? Repeat the above process if the stringi swrapped around the edge of the larger disc.
