consider the forces on mass m₁ on the incline plane :
parallel to incline , force equation is given as
T - m₁ g Sin30 = m₁ a
T = m₁ g Sin30 + m₁ a eq-1
consider the force on mass m₂ on the incline plane :
m₂ g - T = m₂ a
T = m₂ g - m₂ a eq-2
Using eq-1 and eq-2
m₂ g - m₂ a = m₁ g Sin30 + m₁ a
inserting the values
(2.3 x 9.8) - 2.3 a = (3.7 x 9.8) Sin30 + 3.7 a
a = 0.74 m/s²
