Homework Statement
In figure, the pulleys and the cod are light, all surfaces are frictionless, and the cord does not
stretch.
a) How does the acceleration of block 1 compare with the acceleration of block 2?
The mass of block 2 is m2 = 1.3 kg. Derive an expression for the acceleration of the
block having mass m2 as a function of the mass of block 1, m1.
Homework Equations
mg-T=m2a2
T=m1a1=m12a2
The Attempt at a Solution
The first one (a) i have done.
Which is that due to the pulley the acceleration of a2=1/2 a1
Can some one help me with the b part
