A block weighing 200 N rests on a plane inclined upwards to the right at a slope of 4 vertical to 3 horizontal. The block is connected to a cable initially parallel to the plane, passing through the pulley and connected toanother block weighing 100 N vertically. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the 200 N block and the inclined plane is 0.10. What is the acceleration of the system ?
