Determine the magnitude of the acceleration of the object

Reference no: EM13301030

An object with a mass of m = 4.8 kg is attached to the free end of a light string wrapped around a reel of radius R = 0.225 m and mass of M = 3.00 kg. The reel is a solid disk, free to rotate in a vertical plane about the horizontal axis passing through its center as shown in the figure below. The suspended object is released from rest 5.80 m above the floor.

(a) Determine the tension in the string.

(b) Determine the magnitude of the acceleration of the object.
