On a table that is frictionless lies a block that is 3.5 kg, which is connected to another hanging block of 5.0 kg. The string and pulley both have negligible masses. The block that is hanging will fall a distance, y, of 0.1m if released. What is the work done by gravity on the two-block system? What is the work done by the normal force on block on table? What is the work done by tension on the block on the table? Please provide answer in the form of an algebraic expression.
