Consider the two rotating pulley-like systems above. They are identical in every way EXCEPT the mass of the pulley on the left is concentrated on the outside edge (ring or hoop shape), while the mass of pulley on the right is evenly distributed throughout the pulley (disc or cylinder shape). Given R =0.15m, M =0.6 kg, and m= 0.5 kg. Both pulley systems are initially at rest and the block masses are a height of 0. 8m above the ground. Required:
a. If both masses are released at the same time, which pulley will hit the ground first?
b. If both masses are released at the same time, which pulley will hit the ground first?
