In Fig. below, two blocks, of masses 2 kg and 3 kg, are connected by a light string that passes over a pulley of moment of inertia 0.004 kg · m2 and radius 5 cm. The coefficient of friction for the table top is 0.30. The blocks are released from rest. Using energy methods, one can deduce that after the upper block has moved 0.6 m, its speed is:
