Two blocks connected by a light string are being pulled across a frictionless horizontal tabletop by a hanging 16.7-N weight T, A (block C). Block A has a mass of 2.00 kg. The mass of block B T, В is only 1.00 kg. The strings remain taut at all times. Assuming the pulley is massless and frictionless, what are the values of the tensions T, and T;? C T1 = N T2 = 36.3 N
