10. A weight of 50.0 N is attached to the free end of a light string wrapped around a reel with a radius of a quarter meter and mass of 3.0 kg. The reel is a solid cylindrical disc free to rotate in a vertical plane about the horizontal axis passing through its center. The weight is released 6.0 m above the floor. a) Find the tension in the string, b) the acceleration of the mass, and c) the speed with which the weight hits the floor. d) Find the speed calculated in part a) using conservation of energy.
