Two blocks are arranged at the ends of a massless cord over a frictionless massless pulley as
shown in the figure. Assume the system starts
from rest. When the masses have moved a distance of 0.317 m, their speed is 1.33 m/s.
The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s

m2 and the table?
What is the magnitude of the tension in the
cord?
