Two masses $400 \ g$ and $350 \ g$ are suspended from the ends of a light string passing over a heavy pulley of radius $2 \ cm$. When released from rest, the heavier mass is observed to fall $81 \ cm$ in $9 \ s$. The rotational inertia of the pulley is . . . . . . $kg \cdot m^2$. $(g = 9.8 \ m/s^2)$
