(a) How does the acceleration of block 1 compare with the acceleration of block 2? (Use the following as necessary: m,, m2, and a2.)
a1 = 2a,
Explain your reasoning.
It requires block 1 to move double the distance of block 2. If one is moving half of
the distance in the same time then it is moving half of the speed. So as a result a1
is double the speed of a2.
