The figure shows a cord attached to a cart that can slide along a frictionless horizontal rail aligned along an x axis. The left end of the cord is pulled over a pulley, of negligible mass and friction and at cord height h=1.5m, so the cart slides from x1=5.0m to x2=1.0m. During the move, the tension in the cord is a constant 29.0N. What is the change in the kinetic energy of the cart during the move? Number Units
Given that height h=1.5m X1=5m And When cart slides from to the length of cord changes while the tension force remains constant .so we find the change in the length of cord which is given by
