through a string that goes through the pulley of mass M = 2.00 kg and
radiuss R = 25.0 cm. What is the angular acceleration of the pulley?

the front wheel. Is the linear speed at the very top of the rear wheel
greater than, less than, or the same as that of the front wheel?
A. Twice greater than
B. Twice less than
C. Four times greater than
D. Four times less than
E. The same
F. Non of these

Example: Cylinder 1 is released on an incline and rolls down w/o slipping.
Cylinder 2 has an initial angular speed at the bottom of the ramp and
starts rolling up w/o slipping. What is the direction of the static friction
force in each case?

Friction must oppose relative motion. In the absence of friction:
cylinder 1 would slide down (no rotation),
cylinder 2 would keep rotating at the base of the ramp without going up.
In both cases, relative velocity (at the point of contact) is down the incline,
but for motion w/o slipping it should be zero, and fS must point up.
The weight and the normal force produce zero torque about the CM.
To produce “clockwise” angular acceleration and the appropriate torque
direction (into the page), fS must point up in both cases.
Example: A cylinder of mass M and radius R rolls down an incline of
angle θ with the horizontal. If the cylinder rolls without slipping, what is
its acceleration?
