A puck (mass m 1 = 0.50 kg) slides on a friction less table as shown in

Question:

A puck (mass m1 = 0.50 kg) slides on a friction less table as shown in Figure P9.39. The puck is tied to a string that runs through a hole in the table and is attached to a mass m2 = 1.5 kg. The mass m2 is initially at height h = 1.5 m above the floor with the puck traveling in a circle of radius r = 0.40 m with a speed of 1.5 m/s. The force of gravity then causes mass m2 to move downward a distance 0.15 m.?

(a) What is the new speed of the puck??

(b) What is the change in the kinetic energy of the puck?

Concerned with the magnitude of the angular momentum, not its sign.
