A 375-g stone hangs from a thin light string that is wrapped around the circumference of a frictionless pulley with a moment of inertia of 0.0125 kg  m2 and a radius of 26 cm.
 
  When the stone is released, the stone accelerates downward and the pulley rotates about its axis as the string unwinds.
  (a) What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the stone?
  (b) What is the tension in the string?

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
