Dear colleagues,
I offer you two models that demonstrate “oddities” that I could not understand.
I will be glad if you write your assumptions… advice…. comments…
====================
Model
STYP-2_Relax.key
Link to the model:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1P3C9CnTEGN145BxeU_X8ALUofHXnlTHp/view?usp=sharing
The initial speed of the cargo is set: -1000 mm per second
The cargo moves down.
As the calculation results show, the load receives a real initial speed in the calculation: -2594.6645508 mm per second
during the rise time: 0.00009155 sec – see below

List of questions I wanted to would like to get answers:
1. why, when setting one “initial” speed – 1000 mm per second,
in the first model – the cargo moves down, and in the second model – the cargo moves up?
2. why, when setting one “initial” speed – 1000 mm per second,
in the first model – the actual speed of the cargo according to calculations = - (MINUS) 2594.6645508 mm per second,
and in the second model – the actual speed of the cargo according to calculations = + (PLUS) 3798.5620117 mm per second?
3. Why do the above “initial” speeds reach constant values in different times?
