Chapter 5, Problem 78P

In Fig. 5-64, a force F → of magnitude 12 N is applied to a FedEx box of mass m₂ = 1.0 kg. The force is directed up a plane tilted by θ = 37°. The box is connected by a cord to a UPS box of mass m₁ = 3.0 kg on the floor. The floor, plane, and pulley are frictionless, and the masses of the pulley and cord are negligible. What is the tension in the cord?
