A block weighing 300 N rests on a plane inclined downward 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 to another block weighing 100 N moving vertically downward. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the 300 N block and the inclined plane is 0.10. Compute the tension and its acceleration.
