Question:

In the pulley system shown, Block A has a mass of 10 kg and is suspended precariously at rest. Assume that the pulleys and string are massless and there is no friction. No friction means that the tension in one part of the supporting string is the same as in any other part. Discuss why the mass of Block B is 20 kg.
