Question

m1 = 1.90-kg aluminum block and a m2 = 7.05-kg copper block are connected by a light string over a frictionless pulley. The two blocks are allowed to move on a fixed steel block wedge (of angle θ = 31.0°) as shown in the figure. (For aluminum on steel, μs = 0.61 and μk = 0.47. For copper on steel, μs = 0.53 and μk = 0.36.)

(a) the acceleration of the two blocks

(b) the tension in the string
