According to the description given in the photo, the attached figure represents the problem graphically for the Atwood machine.
To solve this problem we must apply the concept related to the conservation of energy theorem.
PART A ) For energy conservation the initial kinetic and potential energy will be the same as the final kinetic and potential energy, so
PART B) Replacing the values given as,
Therefore the speed of the masses would be 1.8486m/s
Answer:
47.4 m
Explanation:
When an object is thrown upward, it rises up, it reaches its maximum height, and then it goes down. The time at which it reaches its maximum height is half the total time of flight.
In this case, the time of flight is 6.22 s, so the time the ball takes to reach the maximum height is
Now we consider only the downward motion of the ball: it is a free fall motion, so we can find the vertical displacement by using the suvat equation
where
s is the vertical displacement
u = 0 is the initial velocity
t = 3.11 s is the time
is the acceleration of gravity (taking downward as positive direction)
Solving the formula, we find
