Chapter 7, Problem 7.38P
Two blocks with different masses are attached to either end of a light rope that passes over a light, frictionless pulley suspended from the ceiling. The masses are released from rest, and the more massive one starts to descend. After this block has descended 1.20 m. its speed is 3.00 m/s. If the total mass of the two blocks is 22.0 kg, what is the mass of each block?

The crewman of mass ?2=55.6 kgm2=55.6 kg is walking while holding the rope, being careful to lower the crate at a constant speed of ?0=1.50 m/sv0=1.50 m/s. Unfortunately, when the crate reaches a point ℎ=13.9 mh=13.9 m above the ground, the crewman steps on a slick patch of ice and slips. The crate immediately accelerates toward the ground, dragging the hapless crewman across the ice and toward the edge of the cliff. Assuming the ice is perfectly slick, so that there is no friction between the crewman and the ice once he slips and falls down, at what speed ?1v1 will the crate hit the ground? Assume also that the rope is long enough to allow the crate to hit the ground before the crewman slides over the side of the cliff, and that the pulley is frictionless. ?1arrow_forward
