A system comprises two objects, a massless string, a frictionless (but not massless) pulley and the Earth. The objects, 1 and 2, have masses of 0.111 and 0.316 kg, respectively, and hang from opposite ends of the string, which is draped over the pulley. The pulley has a radius of 0.100 m. Initially, you are holding Object 1 to keep the system from moving. Then you let go, allowing the objects to move a vertical distance of 1.00 m and reach a final speed of 2.2491 m/s.

a) What has been the change in gravitational potential energy?

b) What is the final translational kinetic energy of the two objects combined?

c) What is the final rotational kinetic energy of the pulley?

d) What is the final tangential speed of the pulley?

e) What is the final angular speed of the pulley?

f) What is the rotational inertia of the pulley?

Two masses are connected by a massless string, passing over a massless, frictionless pulley as shown in the diagram. Mass m1 = 5 kg, and is released from rest at a height h = 4 m above the table. Mass m2 = 3 kg, and starts at rest on the table. Ignore friction and air resistance. Take the system to be the two masses and the earth. What is the potential energy of this system, in Joules? Next, you let...

Two masses, m1 and m2 hang over a frictionless pulley by means of a massless string. They are perfectly balanced when a flea of mass m3 is standing on m2. When the flea hops from one mass to the other, the system acquires an acceleration, a. What is the value of the flea's mass, m3 in terms of two masses, m1 and m2, and the acceleration, a? (a) what is m3 in terms of m1 and m2? (b) what is...

Two blocks are connected by a string that passes over a massless, frictionless pulley, as shown in the figure. Block A, with a mass mA = 2.00 kg, rests on a ramp measuring 3.0 m vertically and 4.0 m horizontally. Block B hangs vertically below the pulley. Note that you can solve this exercise entirely using forces and the constant-acceleration equations, but see if you can apply energy ideas instead. Use g = 10 m/s2. When the system is released...

Two blocks are connected by a massless string that runs across a frictionless pulley with a mass of 5.00 kg and a radius of 10.0 cm. The first block with an unknown mass of m1 sits on a horizontal surface and is also connected to a spring with a spring constant of k = 250 N/m. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the first block and the surface is 0.400. The second block with a mass of m2 = 6.00...

A 4.00 kg block hangs by a light string that passes over a massless, frictionless pulley and is connected to a 6.00 kg block that rests on a frictionless shelf. The 6.00 kg block is pushed agaisnt a spring to which it is not attached. THe spring has a spring constant of 180 N/m , and it is compressed by 30.0cm. Find the speed of the block after the spring is released and the 4.00 kg block has fallen a...

Two blocks of masses of 2.00 kg and 4.00 kg are connected by a massless string going over a smooth, massless pulley. The table on which the smaller mass rest is frictionless. The other side of the 2.00 kg mass is connected to a spring of k=250 N/m and the far end of the spring is tied to a fixed point. The system is release from rest with the spring at its relaxed length. A.) what is the speed of...

We did a lab where we leveled a horizontal track and used a massless frictionless pulley system with a weight to pull a cart and measured the potential vs kinetic energy of the closed system to find a slope of -1 when graphed. Why is leveling the track so important? How and why would your results be affected if the track were not level? If we did the experiment again and at the time that the cart is being pulled...
