A light cord is wrapped around a wheel, R = 0.10 m and rotational inertia I about its axis and is attached to mass, m = 2 kg, see
the figure. The mass m is released from rest, the cord unwraps, the wheel rotates about its fixed axis and the object accelerates downward, (take g =
10 m/s2). The tension in the cord is, T = 18 N. Find the translational acceleration of mass m, the torque acting on the wheel and the rotational inertia, I (Take g = 10 m/s2).
