m
In an Atwood's machine, two blocks of different mass are hung over a pulley. As the heavier block descends, the lighter
block rises, and the pulley begins to rotate.
The heavier block has a mass of 520 g and the lighter block has a mass of 480 g. The pulley has a radius of 5.0 cm and is
mounted on frictionless bearings.
When the heavier block is released from rest, it falls 75 cm in 5.0 s. What is the moment of inertia of the pulley?

- An old vinyl record is a thin plastic disk of radius 0.25 m and mass 126 g. It is freely rotating at 45 rev/min. You are able to stop the record from rotating in 6 s by pressing your finer against the rim and exerting a radially directed force of 9 N. (Recommendation: If you don't know what a vinyl record is, please do a Google search for an image to help your understanding.)

The angular speed is 7.09 rad/s. The object is attached to a string of negligible mass that passes through a small hole in the table at the center of the circle. Someone under the table begins to pull the string downward to make the circle smaller. If the string will tolerate a tension of no more than 108 N, what is the radius of the smallest possible circle on which the object can move?
