2 blocks m1 and m2 are connected by a rope and are initially laid at rest on a 30-degree incline plane. The plane surface has coefficients of static and kinetic friction at 0.20 and 0.18 respectively. A force 75N parallel to the inclined is applied to stop the blocks from sliding. Determine the masses of the blocks if m2 is twice as heavy as m

Question

2 blocks m1 and m2 are connected by a rope and are initially laid at rest on a 30-degree incline plane. The plane surface has coefficients of static and kinetic friction at 0.20 and 0.18 respectively. A force 75N parallel to the inclined is applied to stop the blocks from sliding. Determine the masses of the blocks if m2 is twice as heavy as m1.
