Consider two masses with $m_1 > m_2$ connected by a light inextensible string that passes over a pulley of radius $R$ and moment of inertia $I$ about its axis of rotation. The string does not slip on the pulley and the pulley turns without friction. The two masses are released from rest separated by a vertical distance $2h$. When the two masses pass each other,the speed of the masses is proportional to

  • A
    $\sqrt{\frac{m_1-m_2}{m_1+m_2+\frac{I}{R^2}}}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\frac{(m_1+m_2)(m_1-m_2)}{m_1+m_2+\frac{1}{R^2}}}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{\frac{m_1+m_2+\frac{I}{R^2}}{m_1-m_2}}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{\frac{1}{R^2}}$
