$A$ rod of length $l$ and mass $m$ lies on a fixed horizontal smooth table. $A$ cord is led through a pulley,and its horizontal part is attached to one end of the rod,while its vertical part is attached to a block of mass $m_1$. Assume the pulley and the cord are ideal. The maximum possible acceleration of the rod's centre of mass $C$ (for all possible values of masses $m$ and $m_1$) at the moment of releasing the block $m_1$ is $\frac{g}{n}$. Find the value of $n$.

$A$ uniformly thick wheel with moment of inertia $I$ and radius $R$ is free to rotate about its centre of mass (see fig). $A$ massless string is wrapped over its rim and two blocks of masses $m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ $(m_{1} > m_{2})$ are attached to the ends of the string. The system is released from rest. The angular speed of the wheel when $m_{1}$ descends by a distance $h$ is
