A solid cylinder of mass M and radius 2R rests on a horizontal
table. A cord is attached by a yoke to a frictionless shaft that
passes through the cylinder, so that it can rotate on the shaft.
The cord passes through a disk-shaped pulley of mass M and radius
R, which is mounted on a frictionless shaft that passes through its
center. A block of mass M is suspended from the free end of the
thread. The thread does not slip on the pulley, and the cylinder
rolls without slipping on the table. If the system is released from
rest, what acceleration down will the block have?
