Consider the situation shown in Figure 4-56 (page 104) of the textbook.  Object A is on the top of a table and object B is hanging from a cord connected to object A over a pulley. Suppose object A has mass 4.0 kg and object B has mass 2.0 kg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between object A and the table is 0.2.  The coefficient of static friction between object A and the table is 0.4.  Draw a free-body diagram for object A and another free-body diagram for object B.  Find the acceleration of object B (magnitude and direction), and the tension in the cord.
