Question
**Problem 1:** Two objects are connected as shown, and the surface is frictionless. \( m_1 = 121 \, \text{kg} \), and \( m_2 = 2 \, \text{kg} \).

**Diagram:**
The diagram shows a block labeled \( m_1 \) on a horizontal surface connected by a cable over a pulley to a hanging block labeled \( m_2 \).

**Part (a)** What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the masses in \( \text{m/s}^2 \)?  
*Numeric*: A numeric value is expected and not an expression.  
\( a = \) ______________________________________

**Part (b)** What is the tension in the cable in N?  
*Numeric*: A numeric value is expected and not an expression.  
\( T = \) ______________________________________
