Two blocks of unequal mass are tied together with a massless string that does not stretch and is connected via a frictionless and massless pulley. Mass 1 rests on a frictionless tabletop. Mass 2 is released and both blocks begin to move, the blocks accelerate at the same rate since they are connected. what is the acceleration?

5.92 ... Block B, with mass Figure P5.92 5.00 kg, rests on block A, with mass 8.00 kg, which in turn is on a horizontal tabletop (Fig. P5.92). There is no fric- tion between block A and the tabletop, but the coefficient of static friction between blocks A and B is 0.750. A light string attached to block A passes over a frictionless, massless pulley, and block C is suspended from the other end of the string. What is the largest mass that block C can have so that blocks A and B still slide together when the system is released from rest?

Blocks of mass m_1 and m_2 are connected by a massless string thatpasses over the pulley in the figure . The pulley turns onfrictionless bearings, and mass m_1 slides on a horizontal,frictionless surface. Mass m_2 is released while the blocks are atrest.Suppose the pulley has mass m_p and radius R. Find theacceleration of m_1.
Find the tension in the upper portion of the string.Find thetension in the lower portions of the string.

Two blocks are connected by a massless rope. The rope passes over an ideal (frictionless and massless) pulley such that one block with mass m1 = 11.25 kg is on a horizontal table and the other block with mass m2 = 6.5 kg hangs vertically. Both blocks experience gravity and the tension force, T. Use the coordinate system specified in the diagram.

Part a) Assuming friction forces are negligible, write an expression, using only the variables provided, for the acceleration that the block of mass m1 experiences in the x-direction. Your answer should involve tension, T.
