Two blocks 1 and 2 are connected by a rope over a pulley as shown. The pulley is very light (massless) and rotates with essentially no friction. Calculate the mass of block 1, m1, given that the mass of block 2 is m2=5.5 kg and that block 2 moves and accelerates downwards at 3.57 m/s2 when θ=35∘ and μk=0.4. I think that I need to be using Newtons second law but I just dont know how to solve this. Can you please help?
