Homework Statement
You have a a mass, m1, in a plane. This mass is connected to a pulley by a thread, to a mass m2. Prove that:
\begin{equation}
m_{1} = \dfrac{m_{2}(2g - a)}{4a}
\end{equation}
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I don't know why, but I can get this:
\begin{equation}
m_{1} = \dfrac{m_{2}(g - a)}{a}
\end{equation}
It's a similar equation, but it's not the same. How can I get the right solution?
Thank you!
