In the drawing, the rope and the pulleys are massless, and there is no friction. The larger block has a mass of 10.09kg and the smaller block has a mass of 4.10kg. Find the tension in the rope. (Hint: the larger mass moves twice as far as the smaller mass). What is the acceleration of the 10.09kg block?

O
4.1kg
The 10.09kg weight rests on the table and the 4.1kg weight is attached to the bottom of the second pulley, hanging in the air. The end of the string is attached to the celling.
