Question
The image presents a physics problem involving two objects connected by a light string passing over a light, frictionless pulley. 

Text: 
"Two objects (\(m_1 = 5.35 \, \text{kg}\) and \(m_2 = 3.35 \, \text{kg}\)) are connected by a light string passing over a light, frictionless pulley as shown in the figure below. The \(5.35 \, \text{kg}\) object is released from rest at a point \(h = 4.00 \, \text{m}\) above the table."

Diagram:
- The diagram depicts a setup where the \(m_1\) object is hanging down from a pulley, and the \(m_2\) object is sitting on a table. The string runs over the pulley horizontally connecting both objects. The height \(h\) is marked next to the \(m_1\) object indicating its initial position above the table.

Questions:
(a) Determine the speed of each object when the two pass each other.
\(\quad \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \) m/s

(b) Determine the speed of each object at the moment the \(5.35 \, \text{kg}\) object hits the table.
\(\quad \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \) m/s

(c) How much higher does the \(3.35 \, \text{kg}\) object travel after the \(5.35 \, \text{kg}\) object hits the table?
\(\quad \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \) m

This problem involves principles of mechanics, particularly Newton's laws and energy conservation, to find the answers to the posed questions.
