A Mass (M1 = 5

Question 51

Multiple Choice

A mass (M1 = 5.0 kg) is connected by a light cord to a mass (M2 = 4.0 kg) which slides on a smooth surface, as shown in the figure. The pulley (radius = 0.20 m) rotates about a frictionless axle. The acceleration of M2 is 3.5 m/s2. What is the moment of inertia of the pulley?
