Two identical sleeves A and B each of mass m can slide without friction on a fixed horizontal rod A load C of mass 2m is suspended from the mid point of a light inextensible cord of length 1 3 3m connecting the sleeves A and B initially the sleeves are at a separation and the load is held motionless What can you conclude for subsequent motion after the load is released Acceleration of free fall is 10 m s A LB C B A Maximum speed of the sleeves is 10 m s BY Maximum speed acquired by the load C is 2 5 m s The load descends a height 1 5 m to acquire maximum speed Before the sleeves collide the net force on the system consisting of the sleeves the cord and the load becomes zero once
