Two uniform cylinders, each of weight W = 14 lb and radius r = 5 in., are connected by a belt as shown. Knowing that the initial angular velocity of cylinder B is 30 rad/s counterclockwise, determine (a) the distance through which cylinder A will rise before the angular velocity of cylinder B is reduced to 5 rad/s, (b) the tension in the portion of belt connecting the two cylinders.
