A 4.00-kg cylindrical reel with aradius of 0.600 m and a frictionless axle, starts from rest andspeeds up uniformly as a 2.00-kgbucket falls into a well, making a light rope unwind from the reel(Fig. 8.36). The bucket starts from rest and falls for 4.00s.
(a) What is the linear acceleration of the falling bucket?
m/s2 downward
(b) How far does it drop?
m
(c) What is the angular acceleration of the reel?
rad/s2
