Two masses are being pulled up a 30.0 degree incline by a force F parallel to the incline. The acceleration down the incline is 1.00 m/s2 and the velocity is up the incline. The force is applied to a 200 kg mass, and a string connects the 200 kg mass to a 150 kg mass. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.200. The tension in the string is
