The figure below shows a solid cylinder that has mass M and radius R to which a second solid cylinder that has mass m and radius r is attached. A string is wound about the smaller cylinder. The larger cylinder rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the larger cylinder and the surface is k. If a light tension is applied to the string in the vertical direction, the cylinder will roll to the left; if the tension is applied with the string horizontally to the right, the cylinder rolls to the right. Find the angle between the string and the horizontal that will allow the cylinder to remain stationary when a light tension is applied to the string. (Use any variable or symbol stated above as necessary.)

The larger cylinder rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the larger cylinder and the surface is I1/4k. If a light tension is applied to the string in the vertical direction, the cylinder will roll to the left; if the tension is applied with the string horizontally to the right, the cylinder rolls to the right. Find the angle between the string and the horizontal that will allow the cylinder to remain stationary when a light tension is applied to the string.
