Question:

A thin, light wire is wrapped around the rim of a wheel. The wheel rotates without friction about a stationary horizontal axis that passes through the center of the wheel. The wheel is a uniform disk with radius R = 0.280m. An object of mass m = 4.20kg is suspended from the free end of the wire. The system is released from rest and the suspended object descends with constant acceleration. If the suspended object moves a distance of 3.00m in 2.00s, what is the mass of the wheel?
