A bucket is being lowered down into a well through a rope passing over a fixed pulley of radius 10 cm. Assume that the rope does not slip on the pulley. Find the angular velocity and angular acceleration of the pulley at an instant when the bucket is going down at at speed of 20 cm/s adn has an accelertion of `4.0 m/s^2`.

Since the rope does not slip on the pulley, the linear speed v of therim of the pulley is same as the speed of the bucket.
the anguklar velocity of the pulley is then
`omega=v/r=(20cm/s)/(10cm)=2rad/s`
and the angular acceleration of the pulley is
`alphaa/r(4.0m/s^2)/(10cm)=40rad/s^2`

One end of a long string of linear mass density 8.0 xx 10^(-3) kg m^(-1) is connected to an electrically driven tuning fork of frequency 256Hz. The other end passes over a pulley and is tied to a pan containing a mass of 90kg. The pulley end absorbs all the incoming energy so that reflected waves at this end have negligible amplitude. At t=0, the left end (fork end) of the string x=0 has zero transverse displacement (y=0) and is moving along positive y-direction. The amplitude of the wave is 5.0 cm. Write down the transverse displacement y as function of x and t that describes the wave on the string.
