Question

(A) Write the torque equation and force equations for the wheel and the mass m. Clearly indicate your sign choices for the force and torque equations.

B)  Find the acceleration of the mass m in terms of m, R, θ and g as necessary

The diagram below shows a wheel(disk) of radius R and mass M
string to a mass m which is hanging freely. The string passes over a fixed pulley which can be
assumed to be massless. When the mass m is released from rest, the wheel rolls without slipping on
an inclined plane of angle 0 with coefficient of static friction lg. Assume that the angle 0 is large
enough that the wheel rolls downward. The moment of inertia of the wheel about its centre of mass
is given by ICM = MR? where M is the mass of the wheel.
