Yes it is. I found the equation I needed for Part one with linear acceleration, and that makes sense. The answer was 95.4rad/s^2, but the answer was the same for the second question as well, and I don't fully understand that. I am looking to understand why it is the same answer.
The question I am given is as follows:
A string is wrapped around a pulley of radius 3.25cm, and a weight hangs from the other end. The weight falls with a constant acceleration 3.10m/s^2.
1. What's the angular acceleration of the pulley?
2. If the weight starts from rest 1.55m above the...
