The system shown in the figure below consists of a mass M = 4.1-kg block resting on a frictionless horizontal ledge. This block is attached to a string that passes over a pulley, and the other end of the string is attached to a hanging m = 2.4-kg block. The pulley is a uniform disk of radius 8.0 cm and mass 0.60 kg.
(a) What is the acceleration of each block?
acceleration of M = 4.1 kg
acceleration of m = 2.4 kg
b) What is the tension in the string?
small tension
large tension
