Problem

A block of mass m1=4 kgm_1=4\,\text{kg} is placed on a smooth 30∘30^{\circ} incline and is connected by a light string passing over a frictionless pulley at the top of the incline to a hanging block of mass m2=3 kgm_2=3\,\text{kg}. Find the tension in the string when the system is released. (Take g=9.8 m s−2g=9.8\,\text{m s}^{-2}.) (a) 33 N33\,\text{N} (b) 27 N27\,\text{N} (c) 25 N25\,\text{N} (d) 29 N29\,\text{N}
