In this lesson a block is pulled up a frictionless inclined plane by another block hanging over a pulley. The acceleration of the system and the Tension in the rope are expressed in terms of m1, m2, and g. The limiting cases of M1 being huge, and M2 being huge are discussed. The case of Theta being 0 (horizontal) is also discussed. Finally, the tension and acceleration of the system are calculated when Theta = 30 degrees, M1 = 5kg, and M2 = 10 kg.
Great explanation! clearead up a couple of things for me...thanks a lot
