### Learning Goal:
Consider the mass and pulley system shown. Mass \( m_1 = 32 \, \text{kg} \) and mass \( m_2 = 10 \, \text{kg} \). The angle of the inclined plane is given, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between mass \( m_2 \) and the inclined plane is \( \mu_k = 0.12 \). Assume the pulleys are massless and frictionless.

[**Figure 1**]

### Figure Explanation:
The diagram presented illustrates a mass and pulley system. The system consists of:

- An inclined plane with a right triangle showing the sides: 13 (hypotenuse), 12 (base), and 5 (height). 
- A block labeled \( m_2 \) (with mass 10 kg) rests on the inclined plane.
- Another block labeled \( m_1 \) (with mass 32 kg) hanging vertically off the edge of the inclined plane.
- The two blocks are connected by a string that passes over two pulleys. One pulley is fixed on the peak of the inclined plane, and the other is fixed on the vertical path down which the second mass is hanging.
- The angle of inclination, taken from the base of the inclined plane to the hypotenuse.

The setup is depicted with a background indicating current weather conditions as "99°F Sunny".

### Additional Information:
This figure helps us understand the dynamics of the motion of the masses considering the forces acting on each mass, including gravity, friction, tension in the string, and the normal force from the inclined plane.

### Part A - Finding the Acceleration of the Mass on the Inclined Plane

**Problem Statement:**  
What is the acceleration of mass \( m_2 \) on the inclined plane? Take positive acceleration to be up the ramp.

**Instructions:**  
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

**Interface Description:**

- There is a section labeled "View Available Hint(s)" which potentially provides helpful hints.
- Below this, there is a mathematical expression input field.

1. The expression begins with "a2 =" indicating that we need to find the value of \( a_2 \).
2. A value input box is provided where you can enter the numerical answer
3. A drop-down list or another input box for selecting or entering units follows the value input box.
4. There are various mathematical operation buttons for assistance, such as:
   - \( x^a \) (exponentiation)
   - \( x_b \) (subscript)
   - \( \frac{a}{b} \) (fraction)
   - \( x \cdot 10^n \) (scientific notation)
5. Options to refresh (reset) the input, and possibly other help features denoted by symbols, are also provided.
6. After entering the values and units, there is a blue "Submit" button to send the response.
7. Below the submit button, there is feedback indicating the correctness of the previous attempt. In the image, it indicates "Incorrect; Try Again: 3 attempts remaining."

### Part B - Finding the Speed of the Mass Moving Up the Ramp After a Given Time

The next part discusses finding the speed of mass \( m_2 \) after a certain time, providing detailed instructions and a similar interface for entering answers.

This structured approach allows students to input their mathematical solutions clearly and check their accuracy through guided steps and hints.
