Three blocks with masses m₁ = 2 kg, m₂ = 7.5 kg, and m; = 5.7 kg are connected through massless ropes that pass through frictionless and massless pulleys as shown in the figure. Block 2 slides on a frictionless table and the system is subject to the regular force of gravity (g = 9.80665 m/s²). (a) Determine the acceleration of the system. m/s² ~ Enter a positive number if block 2 accelerates to the right. ~ Enter a negative number if block 2 accelerates to the left. Q = (b) Determine the tension on the rope connecting blocks 1 and 2. T12 = N (c) Determine the tension on the rope connecting blocks 2 and 3. T23 = N (d) Determine the magnitude of the net force acting on block 2. Fnct,2 = N Instructions ^
