2. Two blocks with masses my and m₂ such that m₁ << m2 are connected by a massless inextensible string and a massless
pulley as shown in the figure above. The pulley is rigidly connected to the top of a wedge with angle 6. The coefficient of
friction between the blocks is μ. The surface between the lower block and the wedge is frictionless. The goal of this
problem is to find the magnitude of the acceleration of each block.
a. Make sketches of the blocks and include any relevant forces.
b. What are the magnitudes of the acceleration of the two blocks?
