Homework Statement Figure 5-57 (link above) shows three blocks attached by cords that loop over frictionless pulleys. Block B lies on a frictionless table; the masses are mA = 6.80 kg, mB = 8.60 kg, and mC = 12.0 kg. When the blocks are released, what is the tension in the cord at the right?

Okay, so we did an experiment in physics class where we launched a projectile from Point A (on the floor). The projectile obviously traveled in a parabolic motion and ended at Point B (on the floor again, so no difference in launching and landing heights). We measured the distance from Point...
