Question
In the figure, two blocks, of mass m1 = 257 g and m2 = 337 g, are connected by a massless cord that is wrapped around a uniform disk of
mass M = 492 g and radius R = 10.1 cm. The disk can rotate without friction about a fixed horizontal axis through its center; the cord
cannot slip on the disk. The system is released from rest. Find (a) the magnitude of the acceleration of the blocks, (b) the tension T1 in
the cord at the left and (c) the tension T2 in the cord at the right.
