can u please help with how to do the 10th question from this. please explain if u do get the answer exactly. please reply as soon as possible. Thanks in advance

we'll take this problem in terms of the forces acting on the barrel and the man
for the barrel: the force due to the barrel - the tension in the rope(T) = ma (because the barrel move's down, the force due to the barrel is greater than the tension)
(120*10) - T = 120a (we dont know the acceleration of the man and the barrel)
for the man: the tension (T) - the force due to the man = ma
T - (80*a) = 80a
find the value of a using simultaneous equations, which is 2 ms^-2
using v^2=u^2 + 2as
find the final velocity of the man at 9 m, taking u as 0 ms^-1
