Answer:
First Condition of Equilibrium is that it must be experiencing no acceleration or the external forces acting on the body should be zero.
Solution :
Given :
M = 0.35 kg

Total mechanical energy = constant
or 
But
and 
Therefore, potential energy at the top = kinetic energy at the bottom


(h = 35 cm = 0.35 m)
= 2.62 m/s
It is the velocity of M just before collision of 'm' at the bottom.
We know that in elastic collision velocity after collision is given by :

here, 
∴ 

= 0.33 m/s
Therefore, velocity after the collision of mass M = 0.33 m/s
There is still air inside of a house, which is pushing the roof upwards, so the forces are equal and the roof is not crushed.
<span>The mechanical advantage to simple machines is that they allow a decreased input force to create a larger output force.
