Two objects with masses of m1 = 3.20 kg andm2 = 7.90 kg are connected by a light stringthat passes over a frictionless pulley, as in the figure below.
A string passes over a pulley which is suspended from ahorizontal surface. A circular object of massm1 and a rectangular object ofm2 are, respectively, attached to the left andright ends of the string.
(a) Determine the tension in the string. N
(b) Determine the acceleration of each object. (Enter the magnitudeonly.)
m/s2
(c) Determine the distance each object will move in the firstsecond of motion if both objects start from rest.
