Homework Statement
Assuming no friction is on the plane or the pulleys and the pulley and rope have negligible mass... Determine the acceleration of each block and the tension in each cord. Block A weighs 100kg, Block B weighs 300kg.
Homework Equations
ΣF = ma
ma = 100kg
mb = 300kg
The Attempt at a Solution
ΣFx = max = T1 = 100ax
ΣFy = may = W - T2 = 2943kg - T2 = 300ay
T1=2T2
I know that I have the relationships right, but I don't know exactly how to extract them...
