A massm is supported by a massless string wound around a uniform hollow cylinder of massmand radius R. If the string does not slip on the cylinder, then with what acceleration will the mass release? (Assumeg= acceleration due to gravity)

  1. A 2g3
  2. B g2
  3. C 5g6
  4. D g
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) g2

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let Tbethe tension in the string,ais the acceleration of the mass andαis the angular acceleration.Weightmgis acting in a downwarddirection.Now from the above figure,mg-T=ma...1As torqueτ=TR=IαThe moment of inertia for the hollow cylinder…
