Homework Statement
Figure shows a massless wheel of radius R on which at a point a mass m is fixed and a uniform chain of mass 2m is tied to it which passes over the rim of the wheel and half of its length is hanging on other side as shown in the figure. When a small clockwise jerk is given to the wheel, it starts rotating. Find the speed of the mass m when it reaches a point P directly opposite to its initial point.
