A 5.5 kg block, m,, lies on a horizontal tabletop. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.15. That block is connected by a massless string
to a second block, my, whose mass is 4.5 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 m,. Include all forces and next to the
free body diagram draw the direction of the block's expected acceleration, a,.
2. Draw a clearly labeled free body diagram for my. Include all forces and next to the
