A frictionless pulley has the shape of a uniform solid cylinder of mass 2.5 kg and radius 15 cm. A 2.1 kg stone is attached to a very light wire that is wrapped around the rim of the pulley, and the system is released from rest. When the stone has lost 3J of gravitational potential energy, how much kinetic energy does the pulley have?

The Answer is 1.1 J I just don't know how to reach this answer.

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 solid uniform disk of mass M = 9.6 kg and radius R = 21 cm rests with its flat surface on a frictionless table (i.e., the axis of the cylinder is perpendicular to the table.) The diagram shows a top view. A string is wrapped around the rim of the disk and a constant force of F = 10.8 N is applied to the string. The string does not slip on the rim. 1) What is the acceleration of...

The pulley shown below has a mass of 3.00 kg and radius R = 60.0 cm, and can be treated as a uniform solid disk that can rotate about its center. The block (which has a mass of m = 900 g) hanging from the string wrapped around the pulley is then released from rest. Use g = 10 m/s2. When the block has dropped through a distance of 2.00 m, what is the block's speed?
