Consider a pair of masses m1 and m2 connected by a non-stretchable string that runs over a frictionless pulley as shown in the figure on the right. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between m1 and the horizontal surface on which it initially rests is μk, find its resulting acceleration magnitude in terms of m1, m2, and μk, when the system is released. Assume that air resistance is negligible and m2 > μk m1.

- The diagram below shows a block of mass m=2.00kg on a frictionless horizontal surface, as seen from above. Three forces of magnitudes F1=4.00N, F2=6.00N, and F3=8.00N are applied to the block, initially at rest on the surface, at angles shown on the diagram. (Figure 1) In this problem, you will determine the resultant (total) force vector from the combination of the three individual force vectors.
