Two crates are attached by a rope over a light, frictionless pulley. The left crate has mass 2kg and rests on a surface, the right crate has mass 5kg and sits at a height h.
Note: I have solved (a) and (b). I cannot make 2c work. 392 W is wrong, 196.5W is wrong (found in a previous question asked on this site), 84W is wrong. No matter which energy I choose it's wrong. How do I solve this?
The actercation of m_(2) is{:[(m_(1)+m_(2)a=m_(2)g-m_(1)g:}],[=>a=((m_(2)-m_(1))g)/((m_(1)+m_(2)))=((5-2)xx9.8)/((2+5))=4.2m//s^(2)]:}the change in kinetic energyE_(k)=(1)/(2)m ... See the full answer
