Question: Block A and block B are connected by a massless string over a smooth and massless pulley as shown below. The masses of block A
Block A and block B are connected by a massless string over a smooth and massless pulley as shown below. The masses of block A and block Il are 2 kg and I kg respectively. The two blocks are released front rest.

(a) Draw two force diagrams, one for each block.
(b) Calculate the acceleration of block A.
(c) Calculate the tension in the rope.
(d) Using the conservation of energy, calculate the velocity of each block after block A has moved down a distance of 0.5 m.
Block B 00 Block A Ceiling
