In the figure, block 1 has mass m₁ - 470 g. block 2 has mass m₂ - 540 g, and the pulley is on a frictionless horizontal axle and has radius R-5.1 cm. When released from rest, block 2 falls 77 cm in 4.8 s without the cord slipping on the pulley. (a) What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the blocks? What are (b) tension T₂ (the tension force on the block 2) and (c) tension T₁ (the tension force on the block 1)? (d) What is the magnitude of the pulley's angular acceleration? (e) What is its rotational inertia? Caution: Try to avoid rounding off answers along the way to the solution. Use g -9.81 m/s². my 111₂
