3. A 1 kg hanging mass is connected by a string over a pulley to a 2 kg block resting on a flat, smooth table. Calculate the acceleration of the system and the tension in the string. Be sure to include complete free body diagrams for each block in your solution. 4. A block is placed on a 30° ramp and is observed to slide down the ramp with an acceleration of 2 m/s?. What is the coefficient of friction between the block and the ramp? 5. Two horizontal forces of 100 N [N] and 80 N [S 30° W] act on an object with a mass of 10 kg. What is the acceleration of the object? Note: this problem requires a full vector solution
