In the given figure,a solid cylinder of mass $m_2$ and radius $R$ is suspended by a string wrapped around it,which passes over a fixed pulley of mass $m_1$ and radius $R$. If the linear acceleration of the solid cylinder is $a_2$ and there is no slipping,what is its angular acceleration $\alpha_2$?

  • A
    $\frac{a_2}{R}$
  • B
    $\frac{a_2 + g}{R}$
  • C
    $\frac{2(a_2 + g)}{R}$
  • D
    $\frac{2(g - a_2)}{R}$

$A$ uniform disc with mass $M = 4\,kg$ and radius $R = 10\,cm$ is mounted on a fixed horizontal axle as shown in the figure. $A$ block with mass $m = 2\,kg$ hangs from a massless cord that is wrapped around the rim of the disc. During the fall of the block,the cord does not slip and there is no friction at the axle. The tension in the cord is . . . . . . $N$. (Take $g = 10\,m/s^2$)
