Extracted text: A block weight is 100 N is accelerated along the horizontal plane by a 30 N weight attached to it. The loaded weight is attached by using a flexible, inextensible and weightless rope, which pass over a smooth pulley as shown in figure 3. By using D' Alembert's Principle determine the acceleration of the system and the tension in the rope. Consider the coefficient of friction between the 100 N weight and the horizontal plane as 0.25.
