Two masses are connected by a light string that passes over a frictionless pulley, as shown below. The masses are m1 = 6.32 kg, and m2 = 7.51 kg. If the coefficient of friction between the incline and m2 is 0.232 and the angle of the incline is 35.0°, find (a) acceleration of the two masses, (b) the tension in the string, and (c) the speed of each mass 2.11 s after being released from rest. (d) Also, determine what m2 would have to be in order to have the system accelerate in the direction opposite of what you found in (a). Assume m1 stays at the same. Note: this problem needs to be done using forces and FBDs - no credit will be given for doing it any other way.
Suppose that a projectile of mass m moves in a verticalplane in the atmosphere near the surface of the earth underthe influence of two forces: a downward gravitationalforce of magnitude mg, and a resistive force FR that isdirected opposite to the velocity vector v and has magnitudek v2 (where v = |v| is the speed of the projectile;see Fig. 4.1.15). Show that the equations of motion of theprojectile are mx'' = -kvx' , my'' = -kvy' -mg,
