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 $v_{m/r} = 2ft/s$ measured relative to the rope. The monkey then continues climbing at this constant rate relative to the rope for $3$ seconds. How fast is the basket rising at the end of the $3$ seconds? Neglect the mass of the pulley and the rope. (given : $g = 32ft/s^2$)
