4. A massless rope is wrapped around a uniform solid cylinder that has radius of 30 cm and mass 10 kg, as
shown in the figure. The cylinder begins to unwind when it is released and allowed to rotate.
(a) What is the acceleration of the center of mass of the cylinder?
(b) If 90 cm of rope is unwound from the cylinder as it falls, how fast is it rotating at this instant?

A massless string is wound around a solid cylinder that has a radius of 0.27 m and a mass of 28.8 kg. The free end of the string is tied to a block of mass 4 kg which hangs straight down. At t=0, the cylinder is allowed to spin about an axis through its center and the block falls, unwinding the string. Assume that the cylinder spins without friction. What is the acceleration of the block?

A block (mass = 1.2 kg) is hanging from a massless cord that is wrapped around a pulley (moment of inertia = 1.0 x 10-3 kg·m2), as the figure shows. Initially the pulley is prevented from rotating and the block is stationary. Then, the pulley is allowed to rotate as the block falls. The cord does not slip relative to the pulley as the block falls. Assume that the radius of the cord around the pulley remains constant at a...

A block (mass = 1.0 kg) is hanging from a massless cord that is wrapped around a pulley (moment of inertia = 1.1 x 10-3 kg·m2), as the figure shows. Initially the pulley is prevented from rotating and the block is stationary. Then, the pulley is allowed to rotate as the block falls.

A solid cylinder has a mass of 100 kg and radius 0.225m. The cylinder is attached to a frictionless horizontal axle. A long (light weight) cable is wrapped around the cylinder. Attached to the end of the cable is a 1.50 kg mass. The system is initially stationary. The hanging mass is then released. The mass pulls on the cable as it falls and this causes the cylinder to rotate. a) What is the velocity of the hanging mass after...

A uniform cylinder of mass 100 kg and radius 50 cm is mounted so it is free to rotate about a fixed, horizontal axis that passes through the centers of its circular ends. A 10-kg block is hung from a massless cord that is wrapped around the cylinder’s circumference. When the block is released, the cord unwinds and the block accelerates downward. a) What is the block’s acceleration?

A 1.53kg bucket hangs on a rope wrapped around a pulley of mass 7.07kg and radius 66cm. This pulley is frictionless in its axle, and has the shape of a solid uniform disk. A. Explain conceptually why the moment of inertia of this pulley is less than the moment of inertia of a hoop around its center with the same mass and circumference as the pulley. B. What is the angular acceleration of the pulley? C. What is the acceleration...

A bucket of water of mass 15.9 kg is suspended by a rope wrapped around a windlass, that is a solid cylinder with diameter 0.350 m with mass 12.4 kg . The cylinder pivots on a frictionless axle through its center. The bucket is released from rest at the top of a well and falls a distance 10.2 m to the water. You can ignore the weight of the rope.
