6. You are designing a pulley/counterweight system to lift fuel rods in and out of a nuclear reactor. The fuel rods have mass of 2M and the counterweight has a mass of 1.5M. The mass and friction of the pulley are negligible. The rods are initially at rest how fast are they moving after 2M block has dropped a distance H? a. Determine the speed using conservation of mechanical energy. 1.5M 2M b. Repeat the problem using Newton's 2nd law and constant acceleration kinematics. Show that you get the same answer as in (a).
