A disc of mass m and radius r is free to rotate about its centre as shown in the figure. A string is wrapped over its rim and a block of mass m is attached to the free end of the string. The system is released from rest. The speed of the block as it descends through a height h, is :-

A uniformly thick wheel with moment of inertia I and radius R is free to rotate about its centre of mass (see fig). A massless string is wrapped over its rim and two blocks of masses m_(1) and m_(2)(m_(1)gtm_(2)) are attached to the ends of the string. The system is released from rest. The angular speed of the wheel when m_(1) descents by a distance h is :

A uniform disc of radius R and mass M is free to rotate about a fixed horizontal axis perpendicular to its plane and passing through its centre. A string is wrapped over its rim and a block of mass m is attached to the free end of the string. The block is released from rest. If string does not slip on the rim then find the acceleration of the block. Neglect the mass of the string.

Two masses M and m are connect by a light string gong over a pulley of radis r. The pulley is free to rotate about its axis which is kept horizontal. The moment of inertia of the pulley about the axis is I. The system is releaed from rest. Find the angular momentum fo teh system when teh mass Mhas descended through a height h. The string does not slip over the pulley.

A wheel of radius 10 cm can rotate freely about its centre as shown in figure. A string is wrapped over its rim and is pulled by a force of 5.0 N. It is found that the torque produces an angular acceleration 2.0 rad s^-2 in the wheel. Calculate the moment of inertia of the wheel.

For given system as shown in figure, the acceleration of block of mass m(m=M/2) kept on smooth table when the system is released from rest is (Strings and pulleys are ideal)
