`VoI_"counterWeighted" = sqrt(2 (( m_2 - m_1 )/( m_2 + m_1 ))* 9.8 * h_2 )`
`(m_2)"Greater mass"`
`(m_1)"Lesser mass"`
`(h_2)"Height"`
`(g)`

This is the formula for the velocity that will be achieved when object one of mass (`m_1`) is suspended at a height (`h_1`) above the ground counter weighed by a second object of lesser mass (`m_2`). Standard SI units are kilograms (kg) for mass and meters per second (m/s) for velocity. However, there are no constants and the output units can correspond to any appropriate input units. Key words: simple machine, potential energy, pulley
