    acceleration a =Mb*g/(Ma+Mb) = 0,400*g/0,600 = 2g/3 m/sec^2 (≅  6.538)

    falling time t = √2h/a = √1.6*1.5/g = √ 2.4/9.807 = 0.495 sec 

    final speed V = a*t = 6.538*0.495 = 3.234 m/sec

    or 

    Mb*g*h = (Mb+Ma)/2*V^2

    0.32*9,807 = 0.3*V^2

    V = √0.32*9.807 / 0.3 = 3.234 m/sec

    Force of gravity = g * 0.4 kg

     

    total mass of system = 0.6 kg

     

    a = g * 0.4 kg / 0.6 kg
