Two blocks of mass m 1 = 45 kg and m 2 = 12 kg are connected

Question:

Two blocks of mass m1= 45 kg and m2= 12 kg are connected by a mass less string that passes over a pulley as shown in Figure P4.12. The coefficient of static friction between m1and the table is µS= 0.45. 

(a) Will this system be in static equilibrium? Assume the pulley is friction less. 

(b) Find the tension in the string.
