Question:

The double pulley shown has a mass of 15 kg and a centroidal radius of gyration of 160 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 0.2. Knowing that the system is at rest in the position shown when a constant force P = 200 N is applied to cylinder A, determine 


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


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