Two monkeys with the same mass stand on a branch at height $h$ above the horizontal jungle floor. Monkey $A$ steps off the branch holding the end of an inextensible rope of length $L$ whose other end is tied to another branch at height $H$, lets go at the bottom of the swing, and falls freely to the floor, as shown below. Monkey $B$ steps off and falls straight downward. Then, neglecting air resistance but not the tension in the rope, the total work $W$ done on each monkey and the speed $v$ with which each hits the floor are as follows:
