Question: The following two problems concern the same physical situation: A spool of mass M = 1 k g sits on its side on a frictionless

The following two problems concern the same physical situation:
A spool of mass M=1kg sits on its side on a frictionless horizontal surface. A thread wound around the spool is pulled with a force T=4N as shown below. The total moment of inertia about the center of mass of the spool is I=0.8kg*m2, its outer radius is R=1m and its inner radius is r=0.5m. The spool starts from rest.

10. The magnitude of the angular acceleration, , of the spool is
a.=Tr+RI+Mr2
b.=TRI
c.=TrI
11. The magnitude of the translational acceleration of the center of mass is
a.acm=TM
b.acm=TI
c.acm=TI+M
