A modification to an Atwood's Machine is to put one of the masses on a sloped surface (see diagam below). Two blocks are connected by a string as shown in the diagram. One mass m, = 3.50 kg is on the surface with negligible friction. This surface makes an of angle 30.0° with the horizontal. The second mass m2 = 2.40 kg hangs vertically. (a) What is the magnitude of the acceleration of each mass? m1 = m/s2 m2 = ]m/s2 (b) What is the direction of the acceleration of m,? O not enough information O m2 accelerates upwards O m, accelerates downwards (c) What is the magnitude of the tension in the cord?
