Question

Problem:

A wheel that is free to rotate and has a mass of M, a radius of R, and a moment of inertia of I which is centered and is fixed at a point a distance H above the ground. The edge of the wheel is wrapped with a thin thread that is connected to a mass M which is the same as the wheel's mass. When the mass is released from a stationary position, it falls a distance of H in a time period of delta t. In terms of R, M, g, I, and H, what is the duration of this process, delta t?

Given:

Radius = R

Moment of inertia =  I

Mass = m

angular speed =  omega_o

initial time = 0

coefficient kinetic friction =  mu_k

velocity center of mass =  v_cm

Unknowns:

Final velocity of the wheel.

Final answer should be in variable terms.

Target:

Determine the wheel's final velocity in terms "I, M, R, and omega o." ( In terms of R, M, g, I, and H, what is the duration of this process, delta t?) 

Final answer should be in this form: v_f = (equation using I, M, R and omega_o.)
