A light rope passes over a light, frictionless pulley. One end is fastened to a bunch of bananas of mass M, and a, monkey of the same mass clings to the other end. The monkey climbs the rope in an attempt to reach the bananas. The radius of the pulley is R.

a) Treating the monkey, bananas, rope, and pulley as a system, evaluate the net torque about the pulley axis.

b) Using the result of part (a), determine the total angular momentum about the pulley axis as a function of time.
