A mass $m_{1}$ is connected by a light string that passes over a pulley of mass $M$ to a mass $m_{2}$ sliding on a frictionless horizontal surface as shown in the figure. There is no slippage between the string and the pulley. The pulley has a radius of $25.0 \mathrm{~cm}$ and a moment of inertia of $1 / 2 \mathrm{MR}^{2}$. If $\mathrm{m}_{1}$ is $1.00 \mathrm{~kg}, \mathrm{~m}_{2}$ is $2.00 \mathrm{~kg}$, and M is $4.00 \mathrm{~kg}$, then what is the tension in the string attached to $m_{1}$ ?

A) $6.83 \mathrm{~N}$
B) $8.02 \mathrm{~N}$
C) $8.33 \mathrm{~N}$
D) $7.03 \mathrm{~N}$
E) $7.84 \mathrm{~N}$
