Problem

A spool has an inner hub of radius 0.040 m0.040\,\text{m} and an outer rim of radius 0.10 m0.10\,\text{m}. A tape is wrapped around the hub and pulled straight upward at a constant speed of 0.50 m/s0.50\,\text{m/s}. If the spool rolls without slipping on a horizontal surface, what is the speed of the spool’s center of mass? (a) 0.50 m/s0.50\,\text{m/s} (b) 2.0 m/s2.0\,\text{m/s} (c) 1.25 m/s1.25\,\text{m/s} (d) 0.20 m/s0.20\,\text{m/s}
