The rotating systems shown in the figure differ only in that the two identical movable masses are positioned a distance r from the axis of rotation (left), or a distance r/2 from the axis of rotation (right). If you release the hanging blocks simultaneously from rest, The rotating systems shown in the figure differ only in that the two identical movable masses are positioned a distance r from the axis of rotation (left), or a distance r/2 from the axis of rotation (right).

A 375-g stone hangs from a thin light string that is wrapped around the circumference of a frictionless pulley with a moment of inertia of 0.0125 kg ∙ m2 and a radius of 26 cm. When the stone is released, the stone accelerates downward and the pulley rotates about its axis as the string unwinds. (a) What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the stone? (b) What is the tension in the string?

A 385-g tile hangs from one end of a string that goes over a pulley with a moment of inertia of 0.0125 kgm20.0125 \mathrm {~kg} \cdot \mathrm { m } ^ { 2 } and a radius of 15.0 cm. A mass of 710 g hangs from the other end of the string. When the tiles are released, the larger one accelerates downward while the lighter one accelerates upward. The pulley has no friction in its axle and turns without the string slipping. What is the tension in the string on the side of the 710-g tile?

A mechanic is examining the wheel of a bicycle to adjust the brake. With the bicycle off the ground, he manually rotates the wheel until it reaches an angular speed of 12.0 rad/s and then allows it to coast to a stop. If the wheel has a moment of inertia of 0.100 kg ∙ m2, and the wheel slows uniformly to a stop in 160 s, what is the magnitude of the retarding torque?

A uniform solid cylinder of mass 10 kg can rotate about a frictionless axle through its center O, as shown in the cross-sectional view in the figure. A rope wrapped around the outer radius R1 = 1.0 m exerts a force of magnitude F1 = 5.0 N to the right. A second rope wrapped around another section of radius R2 = 0.50 m exerts a force of magnitude F2 = 6.0 N downward. How many radians does the cylinder rotate through in the first 5.0 seconds, if it starts from rest?
