Question

Consider the two blocks shown above, connected together by a mass less rope around a mass less, frictionless pulley. The mass of the top block is m, = 5.50 kg and the mass of the bottom block is m₂ = 11.4 kg, and all surfaces have a coefficient of kinetic friction muk= 0.500. If the bottom block is pulled to the left with a force of T = 176 N, what is the acceleration of the bottom block?
