Two blocks attached by a string (see figure) slide down a 20° incline. Block 1 has mass m1 = 0.78 kg and block 2 has mass m2 = 0.23 kg. In addition, the kinetic coefficients of friction between the blocks and the incline are 0.30 for block 1 and 0.20 for block 2.
(a) Find the magnitude of the acceleration of the blocks.
m/s2
(b) Find the tension in the string.
