A5.0 kg block, m1, lies on a horizontal tabletop. the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.20. that block is connected by a massless string to a second block, m2, whose mass is 3.5 kg. the string passes over a light frictionless pulley as shown above. the system is released from rest.
1. draw a clearly labeled free body diagram for m1. include all forces and next to the free body diagram draw the direction of the block’s expected acceleration, a1.
11. draw a clearly labeled free body diagram for m2. include all forces and next to the free body diagram draw the direction of the block’s expected acceleration, a2.
12. use newton’s second law to write an equation for the tension (t) in the string based on your free body diagram for m1.

13. use newton’s second law to write an equation for the tension (t) in the string based on your free body diagram for m2.
14. find the acceleration (a) of the system by simultaneously setting up and solving the
