    Finding an expression for linear acceleration of a hanging mass

    Im not sure what i was doing before...but after recalculating using your imput, i got a=2g is this what you calculated as well?

    Finding an expression for linear acceleration of a hanging mass

    A rope of negligible mass is wrapped around a uniform solid cylinder, of radius R, that can rotate freely about its axis, which is horizontal and fixed. A block hangs vertically from the rope and causes the cylinder to spin. The blocks mass, M_B is 4 times the mass, M, of the cylinder. Find an...
