Homework Statement


Consider the pulley to be ideal. If the system disturbed from its equilibrium position by pulling the right hand mass down a slight amount and then released, determine the frequency and period of the oscillation. Radius of pulley is r=2m and I bar of the pulley is 10kg/m2.

here is the picture:

I got f=0.982hz and T=1.01s

Is that correct?
