Two blocks with mass M1 and M2 are sitting on a frictionlesshorizontal floor. They areconnected by means of a rope with mass M. You can neglect anysagging of the rope, and treatit as perfectly taut and horizontally. A horizontal pulling forcewith magnitude P is exerted onblock M1. Calculate the tension in the front of the rope and in theback of the rope. ALSO statewhat these tensions would become when the mass of the rope would benegligible.
