In each of the three arrangements,the block of mass $m_1$ is being pulled left with constant velocity $v$. There is no friction anywhere. The strings are light and inextensible and pulleys are massless. The ratio of the speed of the block of mass $m_2$ in the three cases respectively is

$A$ basket and its contents have mass $M$. $A$ monkey of mass $2M$ grabs the other end of the rope and very quickly (almost instantaneously) accelerates by pulling hard on the rope until he is moving with a constant speed of $v_{m/r} = 2 \, ft/s$ measured relative to the rope. The monkey then continues climbing at this constant rate relative to the rope for $3 \, s$. How fast is the basket rising at the end of the $3 \, s$? Neglect the mass of the pulley and the rope. (given : $g = 32 \, ft/s^2$)
