A
1. A 3.00 kg stone is tied to a thin, light wire of negligible mass wrapped around the outer edge of a thin-walled hollow cylindrical pulley. The radius of the pulley is 0.500 m and its mass is 7.00 kg. The system is released from rest and there is no friction at the axle of the pulley.
a. Using Newton's second law, find i. The acceleration of the stone, ii. The angular acceleration of the pulley, and iii. The tension in the wire.
b. Using the conservation of energy, find the speed of the stone when it has descended 1.00 m. (Do not use the acceleration you found in a to solve for speed, although you can check your answer using the acceleration from (a)).
