Block A weighs 200 lb and rides in a 
frictionless vertical guide as shown. Uniform 
cylinder B weighs 300 lb and is connected to 
block A by member AB which weighs 180 lb. 
Cylinder B starts directly below block A with 
negligible velocity. Calculate the velocity of 
block A when the system has achieved the 
position show.
