Question

A stone is suspended from the free end of a wire that is wrapped around the outer rim of a pulley, as shown in the figure (see the figure (Figure 1) ). The pulley is a uniform disk with mass 10.1kg and radius 51.0cm and turns on frictionless bearings. You measure that the stone travels a distance 12.8m during a time interval of 3.40s starting from rest.

Part A

Find the mass of the stone.

Take the free fall acceleration to be 9.80m/s2.

Part B

Find the tension in the wire.

Take the free fall acceleration to be 9.80m/s2.
