A block of mass m is attached at the end...

A block of mass `m` is attached at the end of an inextensible string which is wound over a rough pulley of mass `M` and radius `R` figure a. Assume the string does not slide over the pulley. Find the acceleration of the block when released.

AI Generated Solution

To find the acceleration of the block when released, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the forces acting on the block When the block of mass `m` is released, the forces acting on it are: - The gravitational force downward: \( F_g = mg \) - The tension in the string acting upward: \( T \) ### Step 2: Write the equation of motion for the block ...
