H.W: Two boxes are connected by a cord running over a pulley. The
coefficient of kinetic friction between m, (5kg) and the table is 0.20. We ignore the
mass of the cord and pulley and any friction in the pulley, which means we can
assume that a force applied to one end of the cord will have the same magnitude at
the other end. We wish to find the acceleration, a, of the system, which will have
the same magnitude for both boxes assuming the cord doesn't stretch. As m; (2Kg)
move down, m, move to the right.

You want to use a rope to pull a 12 kg box of books up a plane inclined 30 degrees above the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.28.The rope pulls parallel to the incline. What force do you need to exert on the rope if you want to pull the box with a constant acceleration of 0.50 m/s squared yp the plane?
