If A descends X then B will ascend 2x. Further if speed of A at this instant is `2.5 m//s`, then speed of B at this instant will be `5 m//s`. Now,
Deecrease in potential energy of `A =` increase in potential energy of `B +` increase in kinetic energy of both
`:. (300)x =(50)(2x) + 1/2 ((300)/(9.8)) (2.5)^(2)`
`+(1)/(2) ((50)/(9.8))(5.0)^(2)`
Solving we get,
`x=0.796 m`.
