Serway & Jewett β€” The Laws of Motion: Problem 53

Initially, the system of objects shown in Figure P5.49 is held motionless. The pulley and all surfaces and wheels are frictionless. Let the force \(\vec{F}\) be zero and assume that \(m_1\) can move only vertically. At the instant after the system of objects is released, find (a) the tension \(T\) in the string, (b) the acceleration of \(m_2\), (c) the acceleration of \(M\), and (d) the acceleration of \(m_1\). (Note: The pulley accelerates along with the cart.)
