Hi. I have a problem.
Two metal disks with different radius and different weight are welded together. The smaller disk has a string wrapped around it with a block on the other end. I have to calculate the speed of the block after 2 meters. I'm trying to use this equation: v=sqrt(2gh/1+M/2m) to solve this. Where M is the total mass of the disks and block while m is the mass of the block. This is not working. Do you guys know a way around this, I guess I need some kind of a relation between the two disks.
