A block with mass m1 hangs from a rope that is extended over an ideal pulley and attached to a second block with mass m2 that sits on a ledge. The second block is also connected to a third block with mass m3 by a second rope that hangs over a second ideal pulley as shown in the figure below. If the friction between the ledge and the second block is negligible,
m1 = 2.00 kg,
m2 = 4.80 kg,
and
m3 = 7.00 kg,
find the magnitude of the tension in each rope and the acceleration of each block. (Enter the magnitude.)
