Two masses m1 and m2 connected to a light string that goes over a pulley as shown in the diagram. The system stays at rest. Label all forces acting on m1 and m2. If m1=2.4kg and m2=1.2kg, determine the friction force on m1 and tension of the string. The image depicts a physics diagram of a simple pulley system. It consists of two masses, \( m_1 \) and \( m_2 \). Description of the Components:1. **Mass \( m_1 \)**: This mass is placed on a horizontal surface, represented with a shaded area to indicate friction. It is connected to a string that passes over a pulley.2. **Pulley**: The pulley is shown as a circle on the top right of the diagram. The purpose of the pulley is to redirect the tension in the string without friction. The string is assumed to be inextensible and massless for simplification.3. **Mass \( m_2 \)**: Hanging vertically, this mass is connected to the other end of the string. Gravity acts on this mass, pulling it downward.This diagram illustrates the basic setup of an Atwood machine, which is commonly used to study dynamics and mechanical advantage concepts in physics.
