Problem statement: We are given the masses of two cylinders, one bigger than the other, an velocity for the bigger one (as shown), and a motor which powers the motion of the system as shown. The motion is generated by a given electrical input. We are to utilize the given information to find the combined electrical and mechanical efficiency of this system.

Find the combined efficiency in this system
2 m/s
Methods and assumptions: Our initial approach to this problem will revolve around finding the power output being generated. In order to do this, we will need to know the power that is moving the 300kg cylinder up at a velocity of
