Mass sits on a frictionless horizontal table

Reference no: EM13541318

Two identical blocks of mass m are connected by a cord of length l that runs over a massless frictionless pulley, as shown below. One mass sits on a frictionless horizontal table. Now suppose that the string has a total mass M, which is distributed uniformly along its length. Using Lagrange’s equations, solve for y(t)
