Two masses $m$ and $2m$ are connected by a light string passing over a pulley (disc) of mass $M = 30m$ and radius $r = 0.1 \ m$. The pulley is mounted in a vertical plane and is free to rotate about its axis. The $2m$ mass is released from rest. Find its speed when it has descended through a height of $h = 3.6 \ m$. (Assume the string does not slip and $g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

What are the characteristics of rotational motion?

Consider two masses with $m_1 > m_2$ connected by a light inextensible string that passes over a pulley of radius $R$ and moment of inertia $I$ about its axis of rotation. The string does not slip on the pulley and the pulley turns without friction. The two masses are released from rest separated by a vertical distance $2h$. When the two masses pass each other,the speed of the masses is proportional to

$A$ spool of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is unwinding under gravity as a string is pulled. What is the acceleration of the spool?
