A uniform cylinder of radius r and mass ...

A uniform cylinder of radius `r` and mass `m` can rotate freely about a fixed horizontal axis. A thin cord of length l and mass `m_(0)` is would on the cylinder in a single layer. Find the angular acceleration of the cylinder as a function of the length `x` of the hanging part of the end. the wound part of the cord is supposed to have its centre of gravity on the cylinder axis is shown in figure.

A uniform cylinder of radius R, and mass M rotates freely about a stationary horizontal axix O. A thin cord of length l and mass m is wound on the cylinder in a single layer and its free end is falling vertically. Find the acceleration as a function of the length x of the hanging part of the cord. Assume the center of mass of the wound part of the cord to be the axis of the cylinder.

A uniform cylinder of radius 12 cm and mass 25 kg is mounted so as to rotate freely about a horizontal axis that is parallel to and 5.0 cm from the central longitudinal axis of the cylinder. (a) What is the rotational inertia of the cylinder about the axis of rotation? (b) If the cyliner is released from rest with its central longitudinal axis at the same height as the axis about which the cylinder rotates, what is the angular speed of the cylinder as it passes through its lowest position?
