Two flywheels of negligible mass and different radii are bonded together and rotate about a common axis

Two flywheels of negligible mass and different radii are bonded together and rotate about a common axis (see below).


The smaller flywheel of radius Rhas a cord that has a pulling force F on it.
What pulling force F needs to be applied to the cord connecting the larger flywheel of radius R such that the combination does not rotate? 
Input your answer in N using 3 significant figures.
