The system shown in the figure below consists of a mass M = 3.3-kg block resting on a frictionless horizontal ledge. This block is attached to a string that passes over a pulley, and the other end of the string is attached to a hanging m = 1.7-kg block. The pulley is a uniform disk of radius 8.0 cm and mass 0.60 kg.

(a) What is the acceleration of each block?

acceleration of M = 3.3 kg _____ m/s2

acceleration of m = 1.7 kg _____ m/s2

(b) What is the tension in the string?

small tension ______ N

large tension ______ N
