Two blocks are connected by a very light string passing over a massless and frictionless pulley. Fig#1.
Traveling at constant speed, the 20.0-N block moves 75.0cm to the right and the 12.0-N block moves
75.0cm downward. How much work is done?
a) On the 12.0-N block by i) gravity and ii) the tension in the string?
b) How much work is done on the 20.0- N block by i) gravity, ii) the tension in the string,
iii) friction, and iv) the normal force?
c) Find the total work done on each block.
