Homework Statement
Determine the relationship between the angular
acceleration of the flywheel, the downward acceleration of the block, and the radius of
the ring.
Known data:
Mass Ring: 1.420 kg
Radius Ring (Inside, then Outside): 5.10 cm, 6.325 cm
Mass Disk: 1.455 kg
Radius Disk: 11.45 cm
Mass Shaft: Negligable
Radius Shaft: 0.6 cm
Homework Equations
ω=ω0 + αt
f=ma
The Attempt at a Solution
I'm really lost on this, i assume that i need to calculate the tension the block places on the string (F=MA)? Could anyone give me a hint on how to get started on this.
