The system is released from rest. In terms of ml m2, m3 and g, what are
(a) The acceleration of block m3;
(b) The acceleration of pulley B;
(c) The acceleration of block ml;
(d) The acceleration of block m2;
(e) The tension in string A;
(f) The tension in string C?
(g) What do your expressions give for the special case of ml = m, and m3 = ml + m2? Is this sensible?
