Hi there!
We can begin by finding the acceleration of the block.
Use the kinematic equation:
The block starts from rest, so:
Now, we can do a summation of forces of the block using Newton's Second Law:
mb = mass of the block
T = tension of string
Solve for tension:
Now, we can do a summation of torques for the wheel:
Rewrite:
We solved that the linear acceleration is 1.5 m/s², so we can solve for the angular acceleration using the following:
Now, plug in the values into the equation:
