Objects of masses m, = 4.00 kg and mn, = 9.00 kg are connected by a light string that passes over a frictionless pulley as in the figure below. The object m, is held at rest on the floor, an m, rests on a fixed incline of 0 = 42.0°, The objects are released from rest, and m, slides 1.25 m down the slope of the incline in 3.85 s. TR (a) Determine the acceleration of each object. (Enter the magnitude only.) m/s2 (b) Determine the tension in the string. (Enter the magnitude only.) (c) Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between m, and the incline.
