Homework Statement
Two blocks m1 and m2 are connected by a weightless rod are on a inclined plane of ∅=37° and μ =0.25 .What is the common acceleration and Tension of rod if m1 is 4 kg and m2 is 2 kg such that the 4kg block is the upper block.
OPTIONS
A =4m/2 T=0
B =2m/2 T=5N
C =10m/2 T=10N
D = 15m/2 T = 9N
Homework Equations
F=ma
The Attempt at a Solution
Looking at m1
T + m1gsinø - friction1 =ma
T +m1gsinø -μm1gcosø =m1a...
Looking at m2
m2gsinø - T - μm2gcosø =m2a...[II]Adding I and II
i got a =5m/s2 which is WRONG. :([/B]
