$A$ cylinder of mass $M$ and radius $r$ is mounted on a frictionless axle over a well. $A$ rope of negligible mass is wrapped around the cylinder and a bucket of mass $m$ is suspended from the rope. The linear acceleration of the bucket will be

  • A
    $\frac{Mg}{M + 2m}$
  • B
    $\frac{2Mg}{m + 2M}$
  • C
    $\frac{Mg}{2M + m}$
  • D
    $\frac{2mg}{M + 2m}$
