Question

A block and spool are each pulled across a level, frictionlesssurface by a string.
The string is tied to a hook at the center of the front of theblock. The string pulling the spool is wrapped many times aroundthe spool and may unwind as it is pulled.
They have the same mass. The strings pull them with the sameconstant force at the same instant.
Assume the strings are massless. and the hook.

1. which has the greater magnitude of acceleration, the block orthe spool? or are they equal?
2. which finishes first? or do they finish at the same time?
3. when the block crosses the finish line, which hand is fartherfrom the finish line?
4. Which has the greater net external force?
5. which has the greater kinetic energy?
6. which has the greater translational energy?

and please explain briefly for each.
Im having some trouble understanding it.
