1. Two heavy crates, m, and m' lie on different inclines with angles 18.0 and a) 2K, 1C 330, respectively. A cable which runs over a pulley connects the crates. The b) 2K, 1C masses of the cable and the pulley are negligible. Assume that each incline C) 4T,1C is frictionless and that the system is in equilibrium. The mass of m, is 426 kg. a) Determine the tension in the cable. b) Calculate the mass of m2 needed to keep the system in equilibrium. c) Now, suppose that the mass of m, stays 426 kg, and the mass of m2 is 195 kg (note that this would change the tension in the rope). All other conditions remain the same. Determine the magnitude of the acceleration of the crates. 18,00 33.00
