Systems of Masses (slide 8 to 11)
... First, we know that mass m is falling and dragging mass M off the table. The force of kinetic friction opposes the motion of mass M. However, we know that friction is negligible here because it is a smooth surface! We also know, since both masses are connected by a nonstretching rope, that the two m ...
