Calculating magnitude of tension and acceleration


Assignment:

Question 1. A 2.6 kg mass, m2, on a 33.6 degree incline is connected to a 4.2 kg mass, m1, on a horizontal surface. The surfaces and the pulley are frictionless. If F = 31.9 N, what is the magnitude of the tension in the connecting cord?

Question 2. Two masses of 4.75 kg each, connected by a string, slide down a ramp making an angle of 37 degrees with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between M1 and the ramp is 0.31. The coefficient of kinetic friction between M2 and the ramp is 0.15. Find the magnitude of the acceleration of the masses.
