Three blocks with masses m1 = 2.3 kg, m2 = 6.2 kg and m3 = 1.0kg are connected by a light string that passes over a light pulley as shown in the figure below. The table on which blocks m1 and m2 are lying is frictionless. The blocks are released from rest and allowed to move freely. A. Draw the free-body diagrams for the blocks and write down Newton's second law of motion for each one separately. B. Find the acceleration of the system. C. Find the tension forces T1 and T2 acting in the strings.
