The double pulley shown has a mass of 15 kg and a centroidal radius of gyration of 160 mm. Cylinder A and block B are attached to cords that are wrapped on the pulleys as shown. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block B and the surface is μs = 0.2. Given that the system is at rest when the 200 N force is applied to cylinder A, determine the velocity of cylinder A as it strikes the ground.
