Acruise ship makes its way from one island to another. the ship is in motion compared with which reference point?

Consider a double atwood machine constructed as follows: a mass 4m is suspended from a string that passes over a massless pulley on frictionless bearings. the other end of this string supports a second similar pulley, over which passes a second string supporting a mass of 3m at one end and m at the other. using two suitable generalized coordinates, set up the lagrangian and use the lagrange equations to find the acceleration of the mass 4m when the system is released. explain why the top pulley rotates even though it carries equal weights on each side.

14. a body is projected with velocity vi from a.at the same time another body is projectedvertically upwards from point b withvelocity v2 lies vertically below the highestpoint. both the bodies collide thenv2÷v1is
