Question

Two masses mA=2.0 kgm_{\mathrm{A}}=2.0 \mathrm{~kg} and mB=5.0 kgm_{\mathrm{B}}=5.0 \mathrm{~kg} are on inclines and are connected together by a string as shown in Fig. 5385-38. The coefficient of kinetic friction between each mass and its incline is μk=0.30\mu_{\mathrm{k}}=0.30. If mAm_{\mathrm{A}} moves up, and mBm_{\mathrm{B}} moves down, determine their acceleration. Ignore the masses of the cord and the pulley (assume frictionless).
