Question

Q3. THREE blocks initially at rest are connected by TWO separate cables as shown in Fig Q3. The 2 kg block is connected to the 5 kg block by a cable running on a frictionless pulley at the top of a plane inclined 30℃ above the horizontal.

The 5 kg block is connected to the 6 kg by a separate cable and the coefficient of friction between contact surfaces on the inclined plane is 0.25.

Calculate EACH of the following:

(a) the tension in the cable connecting the 6 kg and 5 kg blocks. (14)

(b) the tension in the cable connecting the 5 kg and 2 kg blocks. (2)
