A block of m 20.0 kg is placed on a plane incline at angle a-37.1 and is connected to a second hanging block with mass m2 by a cord passing over a small, frictionless pulley. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the plane and the block is 0.30. a) Find the mass ma if it is to descend 12.0 m in the first 3.00 s after the system is released from rest. b) Find the mass m, for which the block m, accelerate down the plane at a rate same as the magnitude in (a).

A block of m 20.0 kg is placed on a plane incline at angle
a-37.1 and is connected to a second hanging block with mass
ma by a cord passing over a small, frictionless pulley. The
coefficient of kinetic friction between the plane and the block is
0.30.
a) Find the mass m2 if it is to descend 12.0 m in the first 3.00 s
after the system is released from rest.
b) Find the mass m, for which the block m, accelerate down the
plane at a rate same as the magnitude in (a).
