One end of a light spring with force constant k 100 N/m is attached to a venical wall. A light string is tied to the other end of thew-RMhorizontal spring. As shown in Figure P12.57, the string changes from n horizontal to venical as it passes over a pulley of mass M in the shape of a solid disk of radius R= 2.00 cm.
