The system shown in Figure consists of a light, inextensible cord, light, frictionless pulleys, and blocks of m1 = 7.75 kg and m2 = 2.40kg masses. Notice that the block with the mass m2 is attached to one of the pulleys. The system is initially held at rest so that the blocks are at the same height above the ground. The blocks are then released at time t = 0. Find the displacement y1 (displacement up is positive, down is negative) of the block with the mass m1 at the time t-7.94 seconds. Submit your answer in m using 3 significant figures. az m m2

A 10 kg monkey stands on the ground and graps a liana hanging from a tree branch 5 meters above. The monkey walks with the liana and climbs a 4 meter tall cliff. Holding the liana stretched it jumps from the cliff, so that it starts swinging at a speed of 4 m/s. It sweeps above the ground without touching it and start moving upwards, two meter above the ground it lets go of the liana. 1. What is the maximum height the monkey reaches? 2. Where does the monkey land relative to the point where it let go of the liana? 3. What is the tension in the liana just before the monkey lets go of the liana?

Activity 3.3 - Introduction to Potential Energy When you lift a ball up and release it, the ball gains kinetic energy as it falls. There is a form of energy associated with height which is converted to kinetic energy as the ball falls. This energy is called the gravitational potential energy. Consider the Earth and the ball as our system. When two objects within the system interact via a conservative force such as gravity, work done against that force can be stored as potential energy, i.e., the change in gravitational potential energy during a process is negative of the work done by gravity AUgrav=-Waray = mg (h, -h₁). From this, the gravitational potential energy is: Ugrav = mgh, where h is the height above an arbitrarily defined h = 0 position. The sum of the kinetic and potential energy is called the mechanical energy of the system Emech = KE+U If no external forces do work and there are no frictional forces, then the mechanical energy will not change: AE = AKE + AU = 0 That is,…
