The system is released from rest with the spring initially stretched $4$ in $.$ Calculate the velocity of the $136-$lb cylinder after it has

dropped $12$ in $.$ Also determine the maximum drop distance of the cylinder. Neglect the mass and friction of the pulleys.

Answers:

After the cylinder has dropped $12$ in$.,$

$v=$
