The spool has a mass of 500 kg and a radius of gyration kG = 1.30 m. It rests on the surface of a conveyor belt for which the coefficient of static friction is μs = 0.5. Determine the greatest acceleration aC of the conveyor so that the spool will not slip. Also, what are the initial tension in the wire and the angular acceleration of the spool? The spool is originally at rest.
