A block with mass mA = 10.0 kg on a smooth horizontal surface is connected by a thin cord that passes over a pulley to a second block with mass mB = 5.0 kg which hangs vertically. Determine the magnitude of the acceleration of the system? If initially mA is at rest 1.250 m from the edge of the table, how long does it take to reach the edge of the table if the system is allowed to move freely? If mB = 1.0 kg, how large must mA be if the acceleration of the system is to be kept at g100?
