this problem is due in 18 minutes... i just don't understand that equation.. You're not doing the problem for me be helping me with an equation... ;[

it has gravity and tension from both ropes.. I have no idea how to add this to the equation though.

there's one pulling from mass1 and one in hte opposite direction from the ceiling.. How do i add this to the equation?

I don't expect you to do it for me... All i am asking is for the right equation.. I understand how to get acceleration I'm having trouble with the Tension.. i don't understand when he says "you sure tension on m2 till be just T ?"

i'm not sure what you mean by that.. I'm looking at the link he gave me using the horrizontal pulley... Is this not the right equation? i don't see why you guys can't help me with the right equation and for acceleration m2*gravity/m1+m2 = acceleration right??

m2g-t=m2a t=m1a ?? but i am missing acceleration and tension so how do i solve when i have 2 unknowns?

Well i don't have a lot of work to show.. I know F=ma The bottom one i believe would be *gravity (9.*8) i'm just really lost on what equation i need to be using to get the tension in this setup

Here is the Please teach me how to solve this thanks!
