AP Physics C AP Classroom Questions projectile motion

A rope of length L is attached to a support at point A. A person of mass m1 sits on a ledge at position 1 holding the other end of the rope so that it is horizontal and taut. The person then drops off the ledge and swings down on the rope toward position B on a lower ledge where an object of mass m2 is at rest. At position B, the person grabs hold of the object and simultaneously lets go of the rope. The person and the object then land together in the lake at point D, which is a vertical distance L below position B. Air resistance and the mass of the rope are negligible. Derive expressions for each of the following in terms of m1, m2, L and g.
