Two blocks are connected by a rope that passes over a massless and frictionless pulley as shown in the figure below. Given that
m1 = 18.04 kg
and
m2 = 10.57 kg,
determine the magnitudes of the tension in the rope and the blocks' acceleration.
T =
N
a =
m/s2 (Enter the magnitude.)

Using the formula
a= (m2-m1)g/(m1+m2)
a= -0.26
For tension
T = (2m2m1)g/(m2+m1)
=13.33N
a= (m2-m1)g/(m1+m2)
a= -0.26
For tension
T = (2m2m1)g/(m2+m1)
=13.33N
