A pulley with an unknown mass has a 0.3 m radius that is initially at rest. The rotational inertia of the pulley is 0.35 mr2. A 10 kg box hangs from a rope that is wrapped around the pulley that is also initially at rest. The box accelerates downward a distance of 10 m and reaches a velocity of 8 m/s. Calculate the mass of the pulley.
