Question
Two objects (m1 = 4.70 kg and m2 = 2.85 kg) are connected by a light string passing over a light, frictionless pulley as in the figure below. The 4.70-kg object is released from rest at a point h = 4.00 m above the table. answer all of the follwing parts
(a) Determine the speed of each object when the two pass each other.
m/s
(b) Determine the speed of each object at the moment the 4.70-kg object hits the table.
m/s
(c) How much higher does the 2.85-kg object travel after the 4.70-kg object hits the table?

- Assume that the force of a bow on an arrow behaves like the spring force. In aiming the arrow, an archer pulls the bow back 48 cm and holds it in position with a force of 163 N.
