A 2000 g mass is placed on a table and is attached to a mass of 1200 g by a string. A pulley is placed at the edge of the table and the 1200 g mass is placed so that its weight pulls horizontally on the 2000 g mass.  The whole thing will move.  Use the coefficient of friction found in #4 to predict… The coefficient from #4 is 0.2 What’s the acceleration of the 1200 g mass? What’s the acceleration of the 2000 g mass? How long will it take for the 1200 g mass to descend 20 cm?
