Homework Statement


http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/4518/phys2lh6.gif


Homework Equations


W= -um2gh
m1gh=.5Kh^2-um2gh
.5K(h)^2
Final Eq?:
W=um2g*(2g(m1+um2)/K)


The Attempt at a Solution


.2(4)9.8*(2*9.8(7+.2(4))/9 = 133.1754667
I don't know if I went wrong in manipulating the equation but I suspect that's the issue?
