Homework Statement
two masses are connected by a thing string running over a massless pulley. m1 slides on a 35deg ramp with a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.40, while m2 hans from the string. what is the acceleration of the masses?
m1 = 1.5 kg
m2 = 3 kg
Homework Equations
Fnet = ma
The Attempt at a Solution
im not quite sure how to relate the object that is on an incline to the object that is hanging and has its forces going up and down?
would the net force equation just be:
Fnet = (m1+m2)a
m2g - Ff - T = (m1 +m2)a
