Two boxes (m1 = 62.0 kg and m2 = 42.0 kg ) are connected by a light string that passes over a light, frictionless pulley. One box rests on a frictionless ramp that rises at 30.0∘ above the horizontal (see the figure below), and the system is released from rest.(Figure 1)

A) Make a free-body diagram for m1.
B) Make a free-body diagram for m2.
C) Find the acceleration of each box.
