A) M, a solid cylinder (M=1.67 kg, R=0.127 m) pivots on a thin, fixed, frictionless bearing. A string wrapped around the cylinder pulls downward with a force F which equals the weight of a 0.730 kg mass, i.e., F = 7.161 N. Calculate the angular acceleration of the cylinder.
B) If instead of the force F an actual mass m = 0.730 kg is hung from the string, find the angular acceleration of the cylinder.
C) How far does m travel downward between 0.690 s and 0.890 s after the motion begins?
D) The cylinder is changed to one with the same mass and radius, but a different moment of inertia. Starting from rest, the mass now moves a distance 0.337 m in a time of 0.450 s. Find Icm of the new cylinder.
