Homework Equations
~
The Attempt at a Solution
In this case I tried to do the free body diagram (i don't even know if its correct or not)
Block B has two tension forces acting upwards and its weight (5g) downwards
net force=5g-2T downwards
Block A has one tension force acting upwards and its weight (4g) downwards
net force=T-4g upwards
but what do i after that?Is the acceleration of A twice of B?
answer giver in my book is (2g)/7 downward,g/7 upwards(i think its most probably correct)
it would be really helpful if you could give me a clue.
