Solve the following :

Net force is

$\mathrm{T}-2 \mathrm{mg}+2 \mathrm{ma}=0 \ldots \ldots 1$

$\mathrm{T}-\mathrm{mg}-\mathrm{ma}=0 \ldots \ldots 2$

from equation 1 and 2

$a=\frac{T}{4 m}=\frac{16}{4 m}$

$a=\bar{m} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$

Now

$s=u t+\frac{1}{2} a t^{2}$

$s=0+\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{4}{m} \times 1^{2}$

$\mathrm{s}=\frac{2}{m}$

Decrease in P.E. = mgh

P.E. $=(2 \mathrm{~m}-\mathrm{m}) \times 9.8 \times(2 / \mathrm{m})$

P.E. $=19.6 \mathrm{~J}$
