Homework Equations
F=MA
The Attempt at a Solution
In my FBD of the hanging box
[itex]\uparrow[/itex] <--- Tension
[]
[itex]\downarrow[/itex] <--- W=mg
^^ in y direction: T-W=0
T=W
The FBD of the box on the table
[itex]\uparrow[/itex] <---Normal Force
[] [itex]\rightarrow[/itex] <--- Tension
[itex]\downarrow[/itex] <--- W=mg
^^ x direction: t=0
y direction: Fn-W=O
But I am completely confused on how to find the tension of the boxes
