A block of mass m2=6kg resting on a rough horizontal plane is pulled by an inextensible string passing over a pulley, which supports a block m1=5kg as shown in the figure. Determine the acceleration of the system and the tensions in each portion of the string connecting the blocks. The coefficient of friction between the block 2 and the plane is 0.2.
