Question

Learning Goal:

To use the equations of dependent motion applied to a system of particles and to use this information to determine characteristics such as accelerations and acting forces.
The blocks AA and BB shown are initially at rest and have masses of mA=225mA=225 kgkg and mB=105mB=105 kgkg. Neglect the mass of the rope and pulley system and assume block BB moves only in the vertical direction, parallel to the y-axis. Neglect the effects of friction. (Figure 1)
(a) 
f the blocks are released from rest, determine the magnitude of the acceleration of block BB.
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.
 
(b) 
If the blocks are released from rest, determine the magnitude of the acceleration of block AA.
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.
 
(c) 
If the blocks are released from rest, determine the tension in the rope.
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.
