Problem 3: Two masses are tied together with a string looped over

Problem 3: Two masses are tied together with a string looped over a pulley. The mass of A is unknown and is on a table inclined 30 to the horizontal with an unknown coefficient of kinetic friction. Mass B is 12.00kg and is moving downward; mass A is moving to the left, up the slope. An additional force, F of 25.0N, is pulling on mass A downslope (but not enough to stop it) such that the acceleration of the system is 0.8m/s in the direction of motion-speeding up. The force of kinetic friction is 20.3N. a.) Draw a free body diagram for each object. vo b.) What is the tension in the string? c.) MA F Find the mass of mass A. Show that mass A is 11.0 kg. You may not use this number here in this part. d.), ) Find the coefficient of friction between mass A and the inclined table.
