Question

Two masses are connected by a light cord over a frictionless pulley as shown. If M1 = 8.9 kg and M2 = 5.7 kg, calculate the tension in the cable (in N). Take the coefficient of kinetic friction between M1 and the horizontal surface to be 0.3 and assume the acceleration due to gravity to be 9.81 m/s2.
