Question
the mass m1 is on a tilted surface with the height of h it is attached to a rope that is connected to a pulley and another mass m2 (both m1 and m2 have the same mass) the rope is long enough for the 2 masses to remain in equilibrium at h/2 the 2 masses were left free at t>0
1- At time t>0, find the vertical acceleration of the M2
2- Which of the two masses will move down? Calculate the time t1 that the mass will hit the ground?
3- If the block stopped in the previous paragraph when it hit the ground, but the other block continued to move, clarify whether it will hit the pulley or not. Why?

The dump truck is initially at rest on a horizontal surface. The dump truck then starts moving at its maximum constant acceleration of 0.150 m/s². The dump truck accelerates for 25.0 seconds then starts to coast. When coasting, the dump truck decelerates at a rate of 0.225 m/s². Use the initial direction of motion of the dump truck as the positive direction in your coordinate system (report answers to 3 sig figs and show all work including starting equations and algebra).
