Each problem requires a proper FBD and separate kinematic diagram. 1. A long cord of length L and negligible mass is wrapped around a spool with mass m, radius R and radius of gyration about its center ko and released from rest. In terms of given variables and the accleration due to gravity g, find a. the horizontal acceleration of the spool. b. the downward accleration of the spool's center as a fraction of its free fall accleration (i.e. a/g) c. the tension in the cord relative to the tension if the spool was hanging statically from the cord (i.e. T/T,tatic)
