One elevator arrangement includes the passenger car, a counterweight, and two large pulleys, as shown in Figure 11-50. Each pulley has a radius of 1.2 m and a moment of inertia of 380 kg · m2. The top pulley is driven by a motor The elevator car plus passengers has a mass of 3100 kg, and the counterweight has a mass of 2700 kg. If the motor is to accelerate the elevator car upward at 1.8 m/s2, how much torque must it generate? Hint: The two pulleys move together so you can model them as a single pulley with the sum of the moments of inertia.

- A 0.75 kg block is resting on a table. At the end of the table is a pulley. A 1.5 kg mass hangs over the pulley by a string tied to the block. The hanging mass is initially 0.6 m above the floor. The pulley is a solid disk with a mass of 0.25 kg and a radius of 0.025 m. The table exerts a 2.5 N frictional force on the block. The system is released from rest. How fast is the block moving when the hanging mass reaches the floor? Assume the table is long enough that the block remains on the table.

The cable from the crate passes over a solid cylindrical pulley at the top of the boom. The pulley has a mass of 219 kg. The cable is then wound onto a hollow cylindrical drum that is mounted on the deck of the crane. The mass of the drum is 258 kg, and its radius (the same as that of the pulley) is 0.305 m.
