Question

I keep getting wrong answers for this question how do I do it?

A window cleaner is pulling himself up to a pulley that consists of two disks welded together as shown. The person is currently pulling
straight down on the rope in his hands with a force of magnitude 562 N. The other rope is also vertical and is attached to the person's
center of mass. The person's mass is 82.5 kg, the pulley's total moment of inertia is 5 kg · m?, the radius of the small disk is 0.4 m,
and the radius of the big disk is 1 m.
Acceleration
What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the person's center of mass?
