Chapter $4$: Particle Kinetics Homework

Homework $4.$G

Given: Particles A and B $($having masses of $m_A$ and $m_B)$ are interconnected by the cable$-$pulley system shown in the figure. Both particles are constrained to vertical motion with particle A able to slide on a smooth vertical rod. The system is released at $s_A=0m$ with A traveling downward with a speed of $v_{A1}.$ Assume the pulleys to be small, massless and frictionless.

Find: Find the speed of particle A when A has reached the position of $s_A.$

Use the following parameters in your analysis: $m_A=10kg,m_B=10kg,v_{A1}=5\frac{m}{s}$ and $s_A=2m.$
