Wheel A in Figure P14–63 weighs 200 lb and has a radius of gyration of 2 ft. If the system is initially at rest, determine the angular velocity of A after B has dropped 8 ft.

· 14-64

Masses A and B in Figure P14–64 are fastened together by a belt over pulley D. (Assume no slipping of the belt.) The mass moment of inertia of pulley D is 15 kg?m2. How far does mass B drop before reaching a velocity of 2 m/s? The system is initially at rest.

· 15-43

Disc A in Figure P15–43 (IC = 8 kg ? m2), while rotating at 100 rpm, is lowered onto disc B (IC = 10.5 kg ? m2), causing the latter to rotate from rest. Assume no slipping and determine the angular velocity of B.
