A cylindrical rod of mass M, length L and radius R has two cords wound around it whose ends are attached to the ceiling. The rod is held horizontally with the two cords vertical. When the rod is released, the cords unwind, and the rod rotates. The linear acceleration of the cylinders as it falls, is:
- g
- g/3
- 2g/3
- g/2
Answer
(C) 2g/3
