Consider two objects with m1 . m2 connected by a light string that passes over a pulley having a moment of inertia of I about its axis of rotation as shown in Figure P10.50. The string does not slip on the pulley or stretch. The pulley turns without friction. The two objects are released from rest separated by a vertical distance 2h.
(a) Use the principle of conservation of energy to find the translational speeds of the objects as they pass each other.
(b) Find the angular speed of the pulley at this time
