Two objects are connected as shown. The \( 12 \mathrm{~kg} \) cart is on a frictionless \( 42^{\circ} \) incline while the \( 15 \mathrm{~kg} \) block is on a horizontal surface having a coefficient of friction \( \mu=0.23 \). Determine the acceleration of the system of masses

Two blocks, M = 10.3 kg and m = 7.59 kg, are connected via a massless rope. They are being pushed up a frictionless hill, with a slope of 15.8°, with a constant force in the direction of the incline, such that there is a total acceleration of 2.72 m/s² for the system.

Two blocks, M = 10.3 kg and m = 7.59 kg, are connected via a massless rope. They are being pushed up a frictionless hill, with a slope of 15.80, with a constant force in the direction of the incline, such that there is a total acceleration of 2.72 m/s2 for the system.

(II) Two masses $m_{A}=2.0 \mathrm{kg}$ and $m_{B}=5.0 \mathrm{kg}$ are on inclines and are connected together by a string as shown in Fig. $37 .$ The coefficient of kinetic friction between each mass and its incline is $\mu_{\mathrm{k}}=0.30 .$ If $m_{\mathrm{A}}$ moves up, and $m_{\mathrm{B}}$ moves down, determine their acceleration.
