Question: ( 1 ) W A = 4 . 3 l 1 b W B = 2 . 3 l b V 0 = 6 .

(1)
WA=4.3l1b
WB=2.3lb
V0=6.Fts(downsope)
Two blocks are posifioned on slopes as shown, and are connected by a cord in the manner depicted. Given that B has initial velocity Vo downslope, use the Principle of Work and Energy to find:
(a) the distance xB that B will slide downslope before stopping, and
(b) the tension T in the cord
You may assume that T is constant. Hint: write PWE for A and B Separately to get two egns.
( 1 ) W A = 4 . 3 l 1 b W B = 2 . 3 l b V 0 = 6 .
