Two blocks of masses ?1 = 700 ? and ?2 = 1100 ? are connected by a cord of negligible mass and hung over a disk- shaped pulley, as shown in the figure. The pulley has a mass of
? = 1.50 ?? and a radius of ? = 14 ??, and rotates about a light- weight axle through its center. The axle itself is hung from the ceiling by two like cords of negligible mass and is held horizontally. The system is released from rest.
