The figure shows two 2.5 kg blocks connected by a rope that has a mass of 450g. The entire assembly is accelerated upwards at 7.4 m/s^
What is the tension at the at the top end of the rope, near block A
My question:
To find the tension near block A, why don't you need to include the mass in the bottom block but only the mass of the rope and the mass of the first block?
