Two blocks are connected by a string that passes over a small, lightweight pulley. the coefficient of friction between the larger block and the incline is 0.23. The masses of the block are M=6.5 kg and m=4 kg. The blocks accelerate at a rate of 1.1 m/s^2. Find the angle of the incline if the a)hanging block accelerates downwards and b) the hanging block accelerates upwards
