$A$ wheel of radius $0.4 \ m$ can rotate freely about its axis as shown in the figure. $A$ string is wrapped around its circumference,and a weight of $4 \ kg$ is suspended from it. Due to the torque,an angular acceleration of $8 \ rad \ s^{-2}$ is produced. The moment of inertia of the wheel is = $...... \ kg \ m^2$ $(g = 10 \ ms^{-2})$
