Question:

A wheel of radius 0.20 m is mounted on a frictionless horizontal axis. The rotational inertia of the wheel about the axis is 0.050 kg ?? m2. A massless cord wrapped around the wheel is attached to a 2.0 kg block that slides on a horizontal frictionless surface. If a horizontal force of magnitude P = 3.0 N is applied to the block as shown in Figure, what is the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the wheel? Assume the cord does not slip on the wheel.
