A Mass m1m_{1} Is Connected by a Light String That Passes Over a Passes

Question 35

Multiple Choice

A mass m1m_{1} is connected by a light string that passes over a pulley of mass MM to a mass m2m_{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 cm25 \mathrm{~cm} and a moment of inertia of 1/2MR21 / 2 \mathrm{MR}^{2} . If m1\mathrm{m}_{1} is 4.00 kg, m24.00 \mathrm{~kg}, \mathrm{~m}_{2} is 2.00 kg2.00 \mathrm{~kg} , and M\mathrm{M} is 4.00 kg4.00 \mathrm{~kg} , then what is the downward acceleration of m1\mathrm{m}_{1} ?
