Problem 2: Two blocks of mass m, = 2 kg and m2 = 3 kg are connected by a rope that goes over a
frictionless pulley and provides a tension T. m, is accelerating downwards with an acceleration a and m2
is accelerating down an inclined plane with an acceleration a. m2 is on a inclined plane with angle 0 = 30°
and the surface has a kinetic friction coefficient Hk = 0.6.
