but the answer is wrong for the last part,it's 3.456 J in the marking scheme.I think u made a mistake in calculating the distance for ball with mass 0.3g

the height at which A is above the floor is-->
s=t(u+v)/2
s=1.2(0+2.4)/2
s=1.44m
B's final velocity-->
v^2=u^2+2as
v^2=2*2*1.44=2.4 m/s
dist travelled by B after string becomes slack until it comes to rest-->
v^2=u^2+2as
0=2.4^2+(2*-10*s)
s=0.288m
therefore total dist=0.228+1.44=1.728m
gain in gpe--> mgh=0.2*1.728*10=3.456 J
