Pulley system Memes

Behold the terrifying reality of physics homework! One minute you're calculating a simple cart's velocity, and suddenly you're responsible for the ENTIRE PULLEY SYSTEM OF DOOM with a human dangling over shark-infested waters! The jump from "find acceleration" to "determine the exact moment Timmy plunges to his demise" is why physics students develop eye twitches. And for what? SIX MEASLY MARKS?! The most diabolical part? The problem assumes zero friction and spherical humans in a vacuum. *maniacal laughter* No wonder physics students have nightmares about frictionless pulleys!
