Problem

The free end of the thread wound on the coil of mass m is fixed, and the coil is released. What speed does the coil axis acquire when it descends to a distance h, if the tension force of the vertical section of the thread T < mg? What is the total kinetic energy and the kinetic energy of rotation of the coil around its own axis at this moment? The mass of the thread and friction should be ignored.
