Question:

The double pulley shown has a mass of 14 kg and a centroidal radius of gyration of 165 mm. Cylinder A and block B are attached to cords that are wrapped on the pulleys as shown. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block B and the surface is 0.25. Knowing that the system is released from rest in the position shown, determine

(a) The velocity of cylinder A as it strikes the ground,

(b) The total distance that blocks B moves before coming to rest.
