Question: A load of bricks with mass m1 = 16.0kg hangs from one end of a rope that passes over a small, frictionless pulley. A counterweight of mass m2 = 28.2kg is suspended from the other end of the rope, as shown in the figure.
What is the magnitude of the upward acceleration of the load of bricks?
What is the tension in the rope while the load is moving?
