Two blocks are connected by a lightweight string passing over a pulley, as shown in the figure below. The block with mass m₁ = 17.5 kg on the incline plane accelerates up the plane with negligible friction. The block's acceleration is a = 1.40 m/s², and the tension in the segment of string attached to this block is T₁. The hanging block has a mass of m₂ = 24.5 kg, and the tension in the string attached to it is T₂. The radius of the pulley is r= 0.270 m and its moment of inertia is I. The incline plane makes an angle of = 37.0⁰ with the horizontal. T₂ Mo (a) What is the tension force T₁? (Give your answer, in N, to at least three significant figures.)
