Sorry, moment of inertia I mean! (translated problem from my nativ language...) After working some more on this I see that I'm on the wrong track. To help me along on how to attack the problem, I can tell you what else I know: Jd : Moment of inertia of the Winch drum Tm : Motor torque...

Homework Statement A pully system with a hanging mass is connected to a winch. The goal is to find acceleration of the mass for a given motor torque. The pully sheaves is considered with no friction, but has a given inertia. I have found the inertia of the winch, but I have trouble calculating...
