So the correct was to write: ay=(ax-10)/2 Even so, using that leads to nowhere. So the only possibility to solve that was just knowing "conserving string" law. Is there any other way to solve that without that law? (Or better for me to create another thread?) Thank you very much for your help.

So I was reading that ay= - 2 ax. And the answer is 2m/s2 What did I do wrong on my process?

2 units. I am checking all again.

Oh, I am sorry. I didn't want to write all my attempt. This was my full attempt I used linear equations to solve this part: Following the exam solution: 2T-10m=m*ax T-10m=m*ay (I multiplied this by 2) and got 2T-20m=2m*ay Then I tried to make a comparison between the accelerations, so I...
