Question: 1 3 . 1 9 8 Blocks A and B are connected by a cord that passes over pulleys and through a collar C .

13.198Blocks A and B are connected by a cord that passes over pulleys and through a collar C.The system is released from rest when x =1.7m. As block A rises, it strikes collar C withperfectly plastic impact (e =0). After impact,the two blocks and the collar keep moving until they come to a stop and reverse their motion. As A and C move down, C hits the ledge and blocks 4 and B keep moving until they come to another stop. Determine (a) the velocity of the blocks and collar immediately after 1 hits C.(b) the distance the blocks and collar move after the impact before coming to a stop. (c) the value of x at the end of one complete cycle.
