An Atwood machine is set up with a 14-kg mass held 5.0 m above the ground while a second 8.0-kg mass rests on the ground. The masses are released from rest. Find the the velocity of the 14-kg mass when it hits the ground in two ways, using Newton’s 2nd Law and using conservation of energy. Also, find the maximum height reached by the 8.0-kg mass, assuming it does not hit the pulley

Check Your Understanding What happens to force and accleration as the vehicles fall together? What wil our estimate of the velocity at a collision higher or lower than the speed actually be? And finally, what would happen if the masses were not identical? Would the force on each be the same or different? How about their accelerations?
