Two blocks of different metals are sitting on a steel platform as shown. The blocks are connected by a cord running over a frictionless pulley. The aluminum block has mass m1 = 4.60 kg and the copper block has mass m2 = 6.25 kg, and ? = 31.5°. The blocks are released from rest. Will they move? If the blocks move, what is the magnitude of the acceleration (in m/s2) of the two-block system? If the blocks move, what is the magnitude of the tension force (in N) in the cord? If the blocks do not move, what is the sum of the magnitudes of the forces of friction (in N) acting on the blocks?
