Problem

A mass 'm' is supported by a massless string wound around a uniform hollow cylinder of mass m and radius R. If the string does not slip on the cylinder, with what acceleration will the mass fall or release? [Main 2014] ![Diagram showing a uniform hollow cylinder of mass m and radius R. A string is wound around the cylinder, passing over the top, and is attached to a hanging mass m. The cylinder is shown rotating.](https://storage.googleapis.com/diraq-contents/homework-question-parsing/marker/20260106T182719Z/4e89a87a2aee4506a68d51624b57eb29/935eed7aa61f7777f62cfc032e11bee9_img.jpg) (a) 2g3\frac{2g}{3} (b) g2\frac{g}{2} (c) 5g6\frac{5g}{6} (d) g
