Question
As shown in the figure below, two masses m, = 4.30 kg and m, which has a mass 60.0% that of m., are attached to a cord of negligible mass which passes over a frictionless pulley also of negligible mass. If m, and m, start from rest, after they have each traveled a distance h = 1.70 m, use energy
content to determine the following.
(a) speed v of the masses
m/s
(b) magnitude of the tension Tin the cord
