A block of mass m1 = 3.70 kg on a frictionless plane inclined at angle θ = 30.0∘ is connected by a cord over a massless, frictionless pulley to a second block of mass m2 = 2.30 kg (Fig. 5-52). What are (a) the magnitude of the acceleration of each block, (b) the direction of the acceleration of the hanging block, and (c) the tension in the cord? Figure 5-52 Problem 57.
