4-1. A double
pulley consists of two parts that are holding together. It has a mass of and a radius of
gyration around its center of
. The smaller part with
is connected to a
heavier mass B,
, while the bigger part with
is connected to a
lighter mass A,
. Determine the kinetic energy of the system when
clockwise. Assume the
weight of the cables is negligible and they do not slip.
Solution:
