(e) Two blocks X and Y are connected by a light and inextensible string as shown in the figure below.
The string passes over a light and smooth pulley. Block Y has a larger mass than block X.
Assuming that the friction between block Y and the inclined plane is negligible, describe and explain
the motion of the two blocks when the blocks are released.

Q2) A loaded Porter governor has four links each 200 mm long and are hinged at a
distance of 40 mm from the axis of rotation. The mass of each ball is 2 kg and
mass of the sleeve is 20 kg. The governor sleeve begins to rise at 300 r.p.m.
when the links are at an angle of 35° to the vertical. Assuming the friction
force to be constant, determine the minimum and maximum speed of rotation
when the inclination of the arms to the vertical is 40°.
Problem 4.51
The force-compression profile of a rubber bumper B is given by FB = Bx, where
B = 3.5 x 10 lb/ft and x is the bumper's compression measured in the horizontal
direction. Determine the expression for the potential energy of the bumper B. In addition,
if the cruiser C weighs 70,00O lb and impacts B with a speed of 5 ft/s, determine the
compression required to bring C to a stop. Model C as a particle and neglect C's vertical
motion as well as the drag force between the water and the cruiser C.
