A thin, light wire is wrapped around the rim of a wheel, as shown in the following figure. The wheel rotates without friction about a stationary horizontal axis that passes through the center of the wheel. The wheel is a uniform disk with radius 0.266 m. An object of mass 4.15 kg is suspended from the free end of the wire. The system is released from rest and the suspended object descends with constant acceleration.

What is the mass of the wheel if the suspended object moves downward 3.2 meters in 1.86 seconds? 

A thin, light wire is wrapped around the rim of a wheel, as
shown in the following figure. The wheel rotates without
friction about a stationary horizontal axis that passes
through the center of the wheel. The wheel is a uniform
disk with radius 0.266 m. An object of mass 4.15 kg is
suspended from the free end of the wire. The system is
released from rest and the suspended object descends
with constant acceleration. (Figure 1)
