The Figure Shows Two Blocks Connected by a Light Cord

Question 94

Short Answer

The figure shows two blocks connected by a light cord over a pulley.This apparatus is known as an Atwood's machine.There is no slipping between the cord and the surface of the pulley.The pulley itself has negligible friction and it has a radius of 0.12 m and a mass of 10.3 kg.We can model this pulley as a solid uniform disk.At the instant that the heavier block has descended 1.5 m starting from rest,what is the speed of the lighter block?
